2006-06-30	[PATCH] uml: unregister useless console when it's not needed	Jeff Dike
	-mm in combination with an FC5 init started dying with 'stderr=1' because init didn't like the lack of /dev/console and exited. The problem was that the stderr console, which is intended to dump printk output to the terminal before the regular console is initialized, isn't a tty, and so can't make /dev/console operational. However, since it is registered first, the normal console, when it is registered, doesn't become the preferred console, and isn't attached to /dev/console. Thus, /dev/console is never operational. This patch makes the stderr console unregister itself in an initcall, which is late enough that the normal console is registered. When that happens, the normal console will become the preferred console and will be able to run /dev/console.

2005-06-08	[PATCH] uml: compile fixes for gcc 4	Jeff Dike
	This is a bunch of compile fixes provoked by building UML with gcc 4. There are a bunch of signedness mismatches, a couple of uninitialized references, and a botched C99 structure initialization which had somehow gone unnoticed.

	Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it. Let it rip!
