Hello everyone,
Has anyone tried and succeeded installing hurd through crosshurd recently?
Upon the first boot, before native-install, I'm getting:
Hurd server bootstrap: ext2fs[part:1:device:hd0] exec startupFailed to
execute startup
ext2fs: Executing '/hurd/startup': No such file or directory
I have managed to install the hurd on this computer via the CD image of the
2023 release, so I know that he hurd can run on this system.
I'm using the following grub entry, which worked with the system installed from
the CD iso:
insmod part_msdos
insmod ext2
set root='hd-49,msdos1'
if [ x$feature_platform_search_hint = xy ]; then
search --no-floppy --fs-uuid --set=root --hint-bios=hd-49,msdos1
--hint-efi=hd-49,msdos1 --hint-baremetal=ata-49,msdos1
00eba94a-9452-491a-ac60-70aa046e9972
else
search --no-floppy --fs-uuid --set=root
00eba94a-9452-491a-ac60-70aa046e9972
fi
echo 'Loading GNU Mach ...'
multiboot /boot/gnumach-1.8-486-up.gz root=part:1:device:hd0 -s
insmod part_msdos
insmod ext2
set root='hd-49,msdos1'
if [ x$feature_platform_search_hint = xy ]; then
search --no-floppy --fs-uuid --set=root --hint-bios=hd-49,msdos1
--hint-efi=hd-49,msdos1 --hint-baremetal=ata-49,msdos1
00eba94a-9452-491a-ac60-70aa046e9972
else
search --no-floppy --fs-uuid --set=root
00eba94a-9452-491a-ac60-70aa046e9972
fi
echo 'Loading the Hurd ...'

--exec-server-task='${exec-task}' -T typed '${root}' \

module /hurd/exec.static exec '$(exec-task=task-create)'
The bootstrap process seems complicated
(https://darnassus.sceen.net/~hurd-web/hurd/bootstrap/), and I'm not sure how to
go about debugging this issue as the system does not boot.
Any suggestions?
Best regards,
João
