yes, i got the warning message while compile vcmd:

[root@splat vcmd-0.08]# make
arm-angstrom-linux-gnueabi-gcc -g -Wall -O2 -Ivserver -o vcmd vcmd.c
In file included from vserver.h:4,
                 from vcmd.c:34:
syscall.h:110:2: warning: #warning syscall arch arm not tested yet
.....

Seems the syscall does not tested on ARM. Anybody make vserver successfully
on ARM? Thank you so much!

Thanks,
Wenbin
