It does if you replace the native-install with the version found in the same directory as the tar file. Of course, a new tar file is needed. It will be prepared when I have cleaned up my working pile (we did a lot of changes to the boot process which need to be cleaned up just a little bit). > I also had the same problem. > Download all the hurd-i386 packages and use the three scripts(native-install, > etc..) from Marcus. Of course you are right that this method is preferred. Thanks, Marcus -- `Rhubarb is no Egyptian god.'
