Description
With User Mode Linux you can create virtual Linux machines within a Linux computer and use them to safely test and debug applications, network services, and even kernels. You can try out new distributions, experiment with buggy software, and even test security. Now, for the first time, the creator and maintainer of User Mode Linux shows how to put it to work hands-on. Jeff Dike covers everything from getting started through running enterprise-class User Mode Linux servers. You'll find authoritative advice on bootup, compilation, administration, specialized configurations, and much more.

- What User Mode Linux is, how it works, and its uses in Linux networks
- Key applications, including server consolidation, development, and disaster recovery
- Booting and exploration: logins, consoles, swap space, partitioned disks, and more

- Centrally managing User Mode Linux instances, and controlling their hardware resources
- Implementing clusters and other specialized configurations
