I think it's worth mentioning that you need to edit boot/servers.boot script (in your hurd partition.. you can do that from in linux) to setup the swap.. It took me a fair while to figure this out ;-) It should be mentioned in the install docs too me thinks. I was having unhandled page faults (unrecoverable) when I didn't have a swap partition.. since I set that up it seems to be working a bit better, but my translators keep dying on me now.. gonna try reinstalling again ;-) Ian
