Actually, while the problems at SourceForge were delaying the mailing
list, I solved part of my problem. Details below...

Hello,
I have downloaded, built, and begun testing Sculpt EA, following the
instructions linked to in the 18.02 release notes. Everything went well
during the build process.
Since I primarily run everything I do in VirtualBox (and don't have the
recommended hardware anyway), I created a VM as close to the
recommendations as possible. It booted fine from a virtual CD, the
system came up using the VESA framebuffer driver, the mouse worked, and
I was able to follow the instructions until I got to the part about
storage. Unfortunately, there are no "<device>" nodes under
"<block_devices>" in "/report/drivers/block_devices".
I have the VM set up with a "SATA" controller and a single virtual
drive. Has anyone tried this? Do you have any hints on how to diagnose
what is going wrong?
Once I switched the "Chipset" setting to "ICH9", it found the drive, and
I was able to continue.
Also, I modified the config to use wired networking (using a virtual
Intel-based NIC), but I couldn't think of a way to easily test whether
it is working or not. (I'm sure I'm missing something obvious here, but
I appreciate any hints.)
Unfortunately, I am not having luck with the network card. I have tried
all of the available Adapter Types, but none of them work. I get
messages in "/report/log" like these:
For Intel 82540EM:

...
[drivers -> platform_drv] 0:11.0 uses IRQ, vector 0xb, non-maskable
FWIW, VirtualBox doesn't seem to give any way of tweaking things at the
IRQ level.
This is closer to the hardware than I usually get these days. Is there
anything I can try?
Thanks!
