Hi everybody.
I'm writing to search for help about a problem i'm experiencing.
I'm using knoppix as host system for a virtualized computing-grid
testbed, implemented as two Scientific Linux (RHEL like) guests
launched by the qemu emulator.
Two scenarios follow:
1) I boot a Knoppix "vanilla" system (which get access, when ready,
to the local disks). As the system become ready, I install qemu,
uml-utilites,bridge-utils (via apt-get), and I run qemu to virtualize
two pre-installed Scientific Linux images (laying on my main physical
disc). Everything goes ok.
2) I remaster Knoppix to include qemu/bridge-utils/uml-utilites
and the two SL images. When finished, I restart the whole system and
boot from the new, remastered, knoppix DVD. When the booting phase
ends, I try to launch my qemu-ed images. Both of the images, when
trying to chroot to /, fail with a bad kernel panic (with a different
initial message).
Does someone know what is the reason for this to happen? Why this behaviour difference within the two previous environments?
I've to precise that both images are "mirrored": they have the same OS and Filesystem installed on.
Thank you in advance,
Alex.
