Re: New oskit-mach debugging log - failed assertion 'port->ip_srights > 0'
Aha, I have found some discrepancies. My module lines are from
Neil's web page:
http://web.walfield.org/papers/hurd-installation-guide/english/hurd-install-guide.html#SEC5
Wherein he says:
Next, the root file system server and the |exec| server must be
loaded. This is done using Grub's boot module capability. The
parameters are the semantics by which the kernel passes some important
values to the servers.
grub> module /hurd/ext2fs.static --multiboot-command-line=${kernel-command-line} --host-priv-port=${host-port} --device-master-port=${device-port} --exec-server-task=${exec-task} -T typed ${root} $(task-create) $(task-resume)
[Multiboot-module 0x1c4000, 0x2cfe6a bytes]
grub> module /lib/ld.so.1 /hurd/exec $(exec-task=task-create)
[Multiboot-module 0x494000, 0x27afe bytes]
However, the file servers.boot contains this, which is different:
# GNU Mach boot script for Debian GNU/Hurd. Each line specifies a
# file for serverboot to load (the first word), and actions to be done
# with it.
# First, the bootstrap filesystem. It needs several ports as arguments,
# as well as the user flags from the boot loader.
/hurd/ext2fs.static --bootflags=${boot-args} --host-priv-port=${host-port} --device-master-port=${device-port} --exec-server-task=${exec-task} -Tdevice ${root-device} $(task-create) $(task-resume)
# Now the exec server; to load the dynamically-linked exec server
# program, we have serverboot in fact load and run ld.so, which in
# turn loads and runs /hurd/exec. This task is created, and its task
# port saved in ${exec-task} to be passed to the fs above, but it is
# left suspended; the fs will resume the exec task once it is ready.
/lib/ld.so.1 /hurd/exec $(exec-task=task-create)
# To swap to a Linux swap partition, use something like the following.
# You can also add swap partitions to /etc/fstab.
#/dev/hd0s2 $(add-linux-paging-file)
# Don't make serverboot the default pager. The real default pager will
# we started early in /libexec/rc.
die $(serverboot)
Which one is correct? I can boot Debian's gnumach.gz using Neil's commands,
and haven't tested it with the servers.boot yet.
Neither one seems to work with oskit-mach.
Thats all I know. Bye.
