That's exactly what I wanted to do. Have NFS mounts also this ugly 1GB
limit? I hope not...

I'll have a look at that right now. I'm doing lots of C++ stuff and
the lastest compiler is almost as "must".

Two more questions:

1) How can I avoid the HURD from asking me for the root device? Adding

2) Can I have proper German keybord layout with the HURD?
