CVS GNUMach works with Adaptec 2940 Ultra SCSI adapter, tarball's does not

[Ognyan Kulev]

Hi,

As I wrote my system with only SCSI disk and 2940U adapter doesn't work with
Hurd.  While searching Internet for some advice I just checkout CVS GNUMach
and compile it with only --enable-aic7xxx.  And it works!  I add my network
card to ./configure and after 2 hours of downloading latest tarball and
rebooting I have the GNU system at last :-) After the success I tried to
boot with gnumach.gz provided in the tarball (gnu-20010308) and it _hangs_
again.  So there is some problem with tarball's GNUMach.

BTW In installation guides it will be good to add the naming convention for
SCSI: sd0s1.  It is obvious but this will make them more complete.

PS Running Hurd at last will undoubtly inspire me for the next major
revision of the Hurd Web page :-)))
