debian installer, uml, kernel 2.6

[[EMAIL PROTECTED]]

i tried to install debian sarge rc2 into an uml system. the host is 
running a kernel 2.6.8-10 with applied skas patch from 
http://www.user-mode-linux.org/~blaisorblade/patches/skas3-2.6/host-skas3-2.6.7-v7.patch 
(should be ok for 2.6.8 too, debian provied only patches till 2.6.7). 
the uml kernel is  from 
http://packages.debianbase.de/sarge/i386/uml-exp/user-mode-linux_2.6.8-1um-1.tha9.deb. 
for the installer i used initrd 2.6 from a debian rc2 cd set.

the install process stop when its time to install the 
kernel-image-2.6.8-5. the output of /var/log/message tell that setting 
up kernel-image-2.6.8-5 has failed: /usr/sbin/mkinitrd: device 
/dev/ubd/disc4/disc (wich is a logical volume on host) is not a block 
device. i found a closed bug report (#257373: Support for UML ubd 
devices), but a grep on /target/usr/sbin/mkinitrd return the line "echo 
ubd". Can anybody tell me how to install debian into an uml system with 
debian installer? Would it help to use fake_ide, fakehd as uml boot 
parameters or anything else?
