I'm installing the Hurd (J2 iso set) for the first time and everything was going smoothly until I wanted to start installing packages with "dselect". When I select "cdrom" as the install media, I get a message like...
/dev/fd5: line222: 59 Segmentation fault mount >$tp.m ...and dselect recovers rather gracefully and allows me to try again. If I select "cdrom" a few more times, I can get a message like... panic: zalloc: zone ipc ports exhausted -or- panic: zalloc: zone threads exhausted ...and then my machine gets rebooted. It seems fairly consistant and repeatable (I've done it 4 times so far), but it can happen the 2nd, 3rd, or 4th time I try to select the cdrom. I'll include my machine configuration below. Oh, and I don't seem to get any core files from the segfault.
