Hello,
I tried to cross-install Hurd into an empty ext2 partition, and the
installation process hanged after printing this:

It looks like there are some issues with handling /bin/sh symlink:
# pstree -A -a -p 6251
crosshurd,6251 /usr/sbin/crosshurd
`-makehurddir.sh,6298 /usr/share/crosshurd/makehurddir.sh
/media/pendrive/ i486 gnu
`-makehurddir.sh,7018 /usr/share/crosshurd/makehurddir.sh
/media/pendrive/ i486 gnu
`-tar,7179 -xkf -
# strace -p 7179
Process 7179 attached - interrupt to quit
symlink("dash", "./bin/sh") = -1 EEXIST (File exists)
symlink("dash", "./bin/sh") = -1 EEXIST (File exists)
symlink("dash", "./bin/sh") = -1 EEXIST (File exists)
symlink("dash", "./bin/sh") = -1 EEXIST (File exists)
symlink("dash", "./bin/sh") = -1 EEXIST (File exists)
symlink("dash", "./bin/sh") = -1 EEXIST (File exists)
symlink("dash", "./bin/sh") = -1 EEXIST (File exists)
[and so on...]
Hi,
this problem happens only with crosshurd from testing or sid. I try then
also with debian lenny and at the extracting of dash I've got:
tar: ./bin/sh: Cannot create symlink to `dash': File exists
tar: ./usr/share/man/man1/sh.1.gz: Cannot create symlink to `dash.1.gz'
due to the problem that /bin/sh point already to bash. But this doesn't
break the installation. I also try in testing/sid to make the symlink
/bin/sh to bash (instead of dash) but got the same error.
I haven't found a solution at the moment...
Ciao
Bruno
