Hello Marcus, Just come back to Debian Linux after running this tar ball. I think it is great, I may keep it until your next issue. It worked out of the box. It is no problem installing systems here, have got three spare 990Mb partitions.
I think this one is the best yet. Have made one interesting discovery. Got a lot of Panic P 14 error message 000000; also the Hurd would sometimes freeze when I ran settrans, this is a PC hardware error. Do you remember all the stuff about SIG-11 and SIG-4, when building Linux kernels and gcc. People just did not clock their processor right, for this type of load. This machine has a K6 at 233 MHz; but it was bought second-hand from someone who had over clocked it to 240MHz, and played computer games. If I underclock down to 200 MHz when running the Hurd, The Hurd gets more reliable; I do this when doing builds in Linux.
