I tested mtools under GNU/Hurd about 6 months ago, and it worked for me. > Other than some problems with it seemingly locking up when I type in a wrong > command, and me horribly missing support for linux virtual terminals, it all You should mention what caused it to lock up exactly. Just "locking up" won't help us to fix the problem. BTW "missing suport for linux virtual terminals" seems to be strange for me, as Hurd is not Linux. I don't think it's desirable to make Hurd "Linux-clone" at all. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- OKUJI Yoshinori <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> ^o-o^ http://duff.kuicr.kyoto-u.ac.jp/~okuji (in English) m /
