Hi everyone, A few days ago, i decided to try running the debian/hurd on my computer, using the MC Vernon "easy guide" and Marcus Brinkmann guide.
The partitions just worked, and i succeded on different tries to install the hurd with dpkg and install script and another time using the .tar.gz archive. On both tries, everything seemed to work fine until i booted on the GRUB floppy disk, and then booted on the hurd partition. Then comes my problem : hurd freezes when booting just after the COM ports detection, and i really don't know why. Here are the last lines i've got : # Partition check ( DOS partitions ): # hd0: hd0s1 hd0s2 < hd0s5 hd0s6 hd0s7 hd0s8 hd0s9 > # hd2: [PTBL] [585/64/63] hd2s1 hd2s2 hd2s3 # com0: at atbus0, port=3f8, spl=6, pic=4. (DOS COM 1) # com1: at atbus1, port=2f8, spl=6, pic=3. (DOS COM 2) Then, it freezes. All off. Nothing more, doh! If someone could help, that would be great :-) -- Bruno Voisin Laboratoire SIS, Equipe Informatique Universite de Toulon et du Var mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] url: http://www.univ-tln.fr/~voisin/ "Ne nous juge pas de par notre apparence, Car nous ne sommes jamais ce que nous paraissons etre..."
