Hello,
I'm experiencing some serious trouble trying to get the
2005.1 image of
Gentoo to work.  It seems to not have /dev/cobd devices, for
whatever
reason, and booting into a static dev isn't helpful because
I don't have
any way to add swap.
Also, udev fails unable to create the cobd devices, claiming
a lack of
space.  
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Zack.

Did you see example.conf ?

I'm using these parameters:

kernel=vmlinux
cobd0=f:coLinuxGentoo-2005.1-stage3-ext3
cobd1=f:coLinuxfs_512Mb.swap
root=/dev/cobd/0
mem=256
eth0=slirp,00:07:00:01:02:03,tcp:10022:22/tcp:5901:5901

It booted fine, but there are a couple of details to make
networking and sshd
work: dhcp did strange things but I seem to have messed it
using a fixed address
first; sshd needs some missing devices, pty and ptmx.

I haven't used udev and IIRC it's not supported yet in
coLinux 0.7.1 .
