Re: DO NOT USE gnu-19991019.tar.gz; but I am, I am.
Hello Marcus,
Just come back to Debian Linux after running this tar ball. I think it is great, I
may keep it until your next issue. It worked out of the box. It is no problem
installing systems here, have got three spare 990Mb partitions.
I think this one is the best yet.
Have made one interesting discovery. Got a lot of Panic P 14 error message 000000;
also the Hurd would sometimes freeze when I ran settrans, this is a PC hardware
error. Do you remember all the stuff about SIG-11 and SIG-4, when building Linux
kernels and gcc. People just did not clock their processor right, for this type of
load. This machine has a K6 at 233 MHz; but it was bought second-hand from someone
who had over clocked it to 240MHz, and played computer games. If I underclock down
to 200 MHz when running the Hurd, The Hurd gets more reliable; I do this when doing
builds in Linux.
