Well I got that Hurd running, but it somehow hurt's me ;) . I compiled on the other machine a gnumach-1.2 + 1.2-9.diff with ide, am53c974, floppy, lpr and ne2kpci included.
At boot time it gnumach tells a problem about a hd04 or a hd23 ( just one at a time and _without_ the s between ) Is this a bug? Maybe that's some problem with ext. partitions since hd0s4 contains two log. drives with an ntfs and an fat32 fs on it, and hd2s3 is also ext. part. with an fat32 log. drive. Strangely, but it get's recognized before like hd0: hd0s1 hd0s2 hd0s3 <hd0s5 hd0s6> ..., and hd1 contains a prim. ntfs + an ext. with 3 log. ntfs too and this isn't recognized wrong. When I have logged in and try to settrans on the scsi cd0 or cd1 I get everytime one or two line(s) containing both: # settrans -a /cdrom /hurd/isofs /dev/cdX sr_photocd: ioctl error (SONY/PIONEER): 0xfffffff2 Trying to look on it gives me # ls /cdrom / / / No matter, if there is a CD-R or a pressed CD in the drive. Is there a serious problem with the terminfo entries? There might be serious error's installing a locale's package. A lot of error-messages are thrown on the console, afterwards my console shows me just "?" on each directory and files, so bin = ??? sbin=???? aso on each "ls". But doing a cat / <TAB> lists me all possibilities correct. ae or less tell me, that my term lacks to clear the screen and to position the cursor. How could I eventually switch back, since I don't like to install Hurd again, if there is another way. I didn't do much playing with locale's before, sorry. BTW, before and while installing, perl gives me error-msg's about the locale-setting's telling he want's to fall back to standard "C" POSIX.
