I've added sections at the bottom of the wiki page for user success / failure reports. The idea is that if you have a specific combination of hardware that actually works, you can list it here and make it easy for new users to find a similar setup instead of using the trial-and-error approach. If anyone has a working Hurd install, please add a line with your hardware setup to the success section. > > the Hurd died with errors complaining it couldn't read the > > disk partition. > > How big is this hard disk?

Unfortunately, I tossed it back into a container with many other unused drives and I'm not certain which it was. If I get a chance to do some testing, I'll post the results in the wiki. -Steve _______________________________________________ Bug-hurd mailing list Bug-hurd@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-hurd
