UML - User Mode Linux



Hello,

I'm trying to use UML (User Mode Linux) inside Debian, but I've been
running thru a few problems.

I installed the packages rootstrap, user-mode-linux and uml-utilities. I
tried to run rootstrap to create a filesystem image, but it failed; then
I tried to create a filesystem by hand and see if UML would run.

I'm running uml_switch, configured the tap0 interface, and even
installed dhcp3-server as suggested by the docs (binded to the tap0
interface), it doesn't work. When I try 
# linux ubd0=image eth0=daemon
it stops at the line:
NET4: Linux TCP/IP 1.0 for NET4.0

I've tried also using tuntap, loading the tun module:
# linux ubd0=image eth0=tuntap,tap0
then it stops here:
Netdevice 0

The interface tap0 is correctly configured, and uml_switch is running:

# ifconfig tap0
tap0      Link encap:Ethernet  HWaddr FE:FD:00:00:00:00
          inet addr:192.168.0.1  Bcast:192.168.0.255  Mask:255.255.255.0
          UP BROADCAST RUNNING NOARP MULTICAST  MTU:1500  Metric:1
# ps -ef|grep uml
uml-net  19986     1  0 21:17 ?        00:00:00 /usr/bin/uml_switch -tap
tap0 -unix /var/run/uml-utilities/uml_switch.ctl


Anyone knows what more can be wrong?
