      There are a few improper steps in the procedure you are reporting:<br>
    </tt>
    <ul>
      <li><tt>You also downloaded a kernel binary, but I don't see the
          reason for that, given that your intention is to update
          filesystem packages.</tt></li>
      <li><tt>Your invocation fails because the 'mem' argument usually
          requires some suffix indicating the unit (usually 'K' or 'M').
          In the absence of this suffix, the specified amount is
          intended in bytes, and 256 bytes is far too low for any UML
          instance to start up.<br>
          Another reason is that you are running a 64-bit filesystem
          image on a 32-bit kernel.<br>
        </tt></li>
      <li><tt> Even if you wanted to replace the kernel, you should not

              It depends on the tool you want to upgrage. In most cases,

              You do not necessarily need to delete the existing
