WOW Someone who thinks documentation is important. Are you
Is there an "easy guide to ELF" which explains all this stuff?

Is there any documentation on how Mach ports are implemented on i386
machines? I've seen lots of stuff on how to use them and such, but I
haven't seen anything about how they are actually implemented on i386.
Thanks,

You have to use the "screen" program.
Ctrl-a c
creates screens
Ctrl-a n
switches screens

I actually built openssl/openssh on the hurd. The client worked fine, but
the server gorked when trying to connect to it (I never had the time to
figure out why). Also, I haven't uploaded it because (1) I am in the
U.S., and (2) I know nothing of debian's packaging system, and haven't had

This is where the hurd stores the translator information in the file
system itself. So, if you mount a filesystem on /home, that filesystem
itself may have mount points (translators) listed in the fi
Don't remove a file, do a 'ps' and look for the /hurd/storeio process that
is sitting on /dev/hd3

Yes, if they are less than the 1 gig mark.

HURD cannot handle partitions larger than 1 gig. The reason being, it
tries to map the whole thing into virtual memory, and there are
limitations on that for x86 platforms.

function that I'm not thinking of that helps this out?

HURD does not have a MAXPATHLEN defined. Anyone know what the best
work-around is for that? Generally, I've just modified a header file to
set it to 2-4k or something. Is there a better way? Generally, people
like allocating fixed-size buffers - what's the best fix?

You probably don't have libc-devel installed.

Ahhh... very good. I was building openssl using Linux defs. I'm working
on one for the HURD.

Where is termio.h? I installed glibc/glibc-dev from the HURD-D1 CD, but
apparently termio.h isn't there.
