IIRC ld stands for logical drive. Basically it's a disk driver with a virtio backend. >I see that you are making use of the Mach debug interface.

So what do you need, and why? > I need a way to translate logical addresses to physical, so far this was implemented with a lookup table. However virtio drivers seem to require other addresses to be translated, which are not present in this table. I couldn't find another api so far so I used what I had on Debian gnu/Hurd. Could you suggest a better interface (existing or to be implemented)? Cheers Luca
