Hi Marco, thanks for your reply.

What else? ;) I hope the default sources lines are ok.

I will first report against crosshurd, because the uppermem and ext2fs.static-error bugs are probably fixed in current upstream versions. When I see that it's not fixed upstream, I'll copy to Savannah. > Are you sure it is 1.2? The problem is that GNUMach 1.3 displays a > message that is is 1.2 (or something like that).

Besides: On the GNU Mach homepage, I read that the new version supports >=10GB disks. Does this hold for _partitions_ (and the Hurd) as well? I guess, not. bye, Roland
