I had a similar problem related to low memory, but in my case the installation hung at ./native-install, and then at the same place as you on reboot. I used a virtual machine and could just up the memory from 256M to 512M, which worked fine a couple of weeks ago. If you have less then 512M RAM check out the instructions on how to activate swap manually before ./native-install at <http://www.gnu.org/software/hurd/hurd/running/qemu.html>. Otherwise, I have no clue, but you can clear the password manually by editing /etc/shadow, just clear the second field of the root account. (man 5 shadow, for more info) Regards, Fredrik -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
