Since you didn't specify, I assume your talking about building
a guest kernel.  In which case I just went through the the same ordeal.

I used a 2.6.12-mm2 kernel and applied jdike's patch set.  Here are the
URLs for the parts you need.

http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v2.6/linux-2.6.12.tar.bz2
http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/akpm/patches/2.6/2.6.12/2.6.12-mm2/2.6.12-mm2.bz2
http://user-mode-linux.sourceforge.net/work/current/2.6/2.6.12-mm2/patches.tar

I'd be interested to see what others have gotten working.

Hi,
I want to build UML from source using a 2.6.12 kernel. Can somebody
tell me whether to patch it or not as kernels from 2.6.9 have the UML
included??

Thanks,
Ashwin

Hi,
I am more confused now...I want to build a basic UML for a 2.6.12
kernel, just like the other kernels..for a 2.6.0 kernel one need to
apply a uml-patch-2.6.12.tar.bz2 patch and build it.
so do I need to apply the 2.6.12-mm2.bz2 and patches.tar patches and build??

And can you tell me what a guest kernel is?

Thanks,
Ashwin
