hi,
After adding the printk's to gnumach I went back to the kernel
with just ne2000 and booted up. I have the following bugs to report.
(1) After detection of hardware, it does a quick partition check and
then before doing an fsck it prints something like the following
message.
hd04: badd access block=28 count=2 blockend=30 <something else I
couldnt note>
end request I/0 <blah blah>
After the error messg it seems to work fine. I am able to login etc.
I dont know how to note the messages since it goes by too fast and I
cant do Shift+PageUp nor is there a dmesg. :( I could try in single
user mode though. I have added my linux swap partition and it loads
it up fine. I have no idea what this error is or if it is serious at
all.
Here is some information on my hardware and disk partitioning. I have
only a single hard disk. And linux says:
hda: ST38410A, 8223MB w/512kB Cache, CHS=1048/255/63, UDMA
/gnu is on hd0s12. BTW I use reiserfs on most of my partitions but
should that be a problem? /dev/hda2 is my swap partition.
$ mount
/dev/hda1 on / type ext2 (rw,errors=remount-ro,errors=remount-ro)
/dev/hda3 on /usr type reiserfs (rw,noatime)
/dev/hda5 on /usr/local type reiserfs (rw,noatime)
/dev/hda6 on /home type reiserfs (rw,noatime)
/dev/hda7 on /var type reiserfs (rw)
/dev/hda8 on /tmp type reiserfs (rw,noatime)
/dev/hda9 on /usr/local/software type reiserfs (rw,noatime)
/dev/hda10 on /skratch type reiserfs (rw,noatime)
/dev/hda11 on /usr/local/mp3 type reiserfs (rw,noatime)
/dev/hda12 on /gnu type ext2 (rw,noatime)
$
(2) I then did the following
login root
# cd /dev
# MAKDEV hd0s{1,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11}
it works fine. I was able to ls, ls -la the /dev/ dir and no
problems. Now I tried the following
# MAKEDEV fd0
# ls
<no problems>
# ls -l
Crash!
It automatically rebooted after 10-15 secs and I traced the problem to
fd0. So ls /dev/fd0 works fine but ls -l /dev/fd0 crashes Hurd,
repeatably. Even rm /dev/fd0 crashes. I will remove the file from
within linux later.
Would appreciate any help.
thanks,
prabhu
