Network device

[Jan Fricke <fricke@math.uni-siegen.de>]

Hallo!
I tried to install Debian-GNU-hurd, and on the 4th PC I succeeded -- at
least partially: the network device doesn't work.

The PC is a 433 MHz Pentium3, with mean hardware, and a tulip network
device.

The standard mach kernel doesn't support the tulip device, so I tried to
compile a kernel by myself. I used the sources from the CD-ROM
"/src/gnumach-1.3.tar.gz" with the commands

./configue --enable-ide --enable-tulip
make

This kernel boots, and displays while booting, that it found the tulip
network device. If I now try

settrans -fgap /servers/socket/2 /hurd/pfinet -i eth0 \
   -a 192.168.1.12 -g 192.168.1.1 -m 255.255.255.0

the kernel hangs. After a reset I can find a "core" file (about 1MB).

Can someone please help me setting up the network?

Best wishes                     Jan
