The native-install script inside the tar file had an error, please use the latest one from the web page and try again http://www.debian.org/ports/hurd/extra-files/native-install ftp://alpha.gnu.org/pub/gnu/hurd/contrib/marcus/native-install (is an older version if the latest does not work) > In the past it really worked... hmmm... - I'll now try it with 19990104. NOOOO!!! This version is really old and should be removed. I will do it next time I go online. It's very buggy. The fstype thing is really not very important. If this is the only error, ignore it and set up /etc/fstab manually. Thanks, Marcus -- `Rhubarb is no Egyptian god.'
