Hello Marcus, I had some problems then building Hurd and it seems that the reason is still there. serverboot/Makefile includes ../Makeconf after using $srcdir variable defined in it so vpath directive didn't work and make couldn't find boot_script.c; I've placed directive 'include ../Makeconf'; after that there are were problems in link because make always took exec.o from ../exec (even after I inserted . to VPATH), so I had to hide exec.* from exec dir to make make :-) compile exec.c form serverboot dir.
It seems that other people didn't experience such problems although I don't know why. MB> there is a new hurd package in the archive (19991209). Please give it a bit MB> of testing if you like... Best regards, Roman mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]
