Someone please move the following files to alpha.gnu.org (I still can't login): New hurd-19990907.tar.gz file is now available at: http://www.debian.org/~brinkmd/hurd-19990907.tar.gz (~12MB) New boot-19990907.disk is available at: http://www.debian.org/~brinkmd/boot-19990907.disk (one 3.5" disk) The new cross-install and native-install will be available as soon as the web pages are regenerated: http://www.debian.org/ports/hurd/extra-files/cross-install * automatical download of missing files! (by Daniel Burrows) * works with the above packages http://www.debian.org/ports/hurd/extra-files/native-install * create servers/password (needs to be in the hurd package, though) * works with the above packages * does not show rreebboooott problem! (I don't think it is fixed, but it is not triggered right after running native-install) All files are somewhat tested, so I don't expect grave errors. Note that the tsort in textutils is not compatible to the bsd tsort (bug reports are filed). Blame Mark ;) -- `Rhubarb is no Egyptian god.'
