Marcus,
Did you get my message regarding the sysvinit package in your contrib
directory. dpkg complains that my version (1.4.3) doesn't support some
scripting capability and that I need at least version 1.1.0. Is there a
solution to this?
Thanks for your help.

rball, is 1.4.3. Any ideas?

s and creative filenaming to something a
little more twentieth-century? Or, is /libexec/rc just a sample startup
script to get someone running who doesn't have a complete distribution
available?

What's the difference between runsystem and runsystem.gnu? Are both
necessary?

a separate
branch of GNU Mach that contained support for Linux char devices. Is this
required? I was under the impression that it would be someday superceded by
OSKit mach.

e attempted to:
gcc -Wall -l libihash.so start-stop-daemon.c
but I get the message that libihash.so is not found. I guess I need to
define $LIB for this.
Does anyone know the libraries I'll need and the compilation options to make
that work?

pace on top of this "exokernel?" I'm not asking
anyone to work on this, or even look into it. I'm just curious if such an
approach even sounds plausible.
By the way, I understand it is a Hurd convention to make /usr a symbolic
link to /. May I ask why?

3. I can write a simple "hello world" program, compile it, and it the
executable file size will be over 2MB!! Ouch. I can compile GNUMach
without a hitch, but I guess it's not using many of the same libraries.
Any help would be appreciated.

ter and an Intel Express 10/100 card. I get the same

If I use the version of the Hurd from back in October, I don't seem to have
a problem. Everything works fine. Have some options changed that I'm just
not specifying correctly?

character device. After installing the latest version, I get three files that
show, and it looks more like this:
2: operation not supported
crwxr-xr-x ...1
lrwxr-xr-x ...inet
lrwxr-xr-x ...local
This time, the inet and local entries show up as symbolic
kages, is there a list of which packages should be
installed and in which order to get a functional system? I'm a little
leary of doing that, since dpkg never works for me, but I'll try it if
it will help.

Why doesn't FDISK read any partitions? I have tried specifying Mach devices
such as hd0, hd0s1, and Linux devices like hda, hda1, etc.
If I specify fdisk -l /dev/hd0 I get the following:
read: Invalid argument
fdisk: read error on /dev/hd0 - cannot read sector 0
/dev/hd0: unrecognized partitio
ball with everything you

What specifically will you lose if you disable the native Linux drivers,
i.e., #undef LINUX_DEV?
How do you go about porting a native Linux driver into GNU Mach?
Hi everyone. I was wondering if anyone has used the SMP code available in
the Contrib area. If so, has it worked reliably? Any chance this code will
become a part of the official distribution?

Help. I sent this message to a few places already, but I've been told this
is the best list to post items to. I get errors compiling GNU mach 1.1.3
and 1.2 with NCPUS set to 2. I can't get the Hurd to work until I can get
the kernel compiled. Is this a bug?
