#include <greetings> I was having troubles with the above tarball. Whenever native-install tried to create more than 64 entries in /dev, the system hung. I can't give more details (not even sure it is the 64th or 65th node that hangs the system) or backtraces because of other problems. A quick workaround is - /bin/sh ./MAKEDEV -v std ptyp ptyq + /bin/sh ./MAKEDEV -v std + /bin/sh ./MAKEDEV -v ptyp1 ptyp2 ptyp3 ptyp4 ptyp5 ptyp6 ptyp7 ptyp8 ptyp9 + /bin/sh ./MAKEDEV -v ptyq1 ptyq2 ptyq3 ptyq4 ptyq5 ptyq6 ptyq7 ptyq8 ptyq9
I have no idea what those nodes are used for, could the imposed limit cause other programs to fail ? The next problem I have is that I sometimes get a half-hanging system: I type a command, and nothing happens. Even builtins like env or ls (correct me if it is not built into bash) seem to hang until I press Ctrl-C. For logout, I even get some more: hurd:~# exit logout <pause, then pressing Ctrl-C> ^Cbash: /root/.bsh_logout: Interrupted system call <pause, then pressing Ctrl-C> ^Cbash: /etc/bash.bash_logout: Interrupted system call <system hangs, no further interaction possible> These hangs happen without a yet conceivable pattern. Sometimes already directly after booting so I can't even login, sometimes later. uli _______________________________________________ Bug-hurd mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-hurd
