After I updated from hurd_19990425-1.deb to hurd_19990517fixed.deb, I wound up with the following problem immediately after it initialized the swap partition:
ext2fs: hd0s4: panic: main: superblock won't fit on the device! Reverting to 0425 works fine. I then compiled it myself, and had the same problem (With a checkout from anoncvs today) The disk also mounts just fine under linux (This being the way that I resuscitated it). I looked through the ChangeLog's but I don't know enough about file systems to even make a guess as the which of the recent changes might have affected it. What information would you need to help? Tks, Jeff Bailey -- I'm not a vegetarian because I love animals, I'm a vegetarian because I hate plants.
