MAKEDEV kills everything (including the filesystem)
i followed the HURD installation guide for cross-installation:
http://www.debian.org/ports/hurd/hurd-install
i successfully booted into my fresh HURD installation. then did this:
# export TERM=mach
# ./native-install
and i rebooted as i needed to do "./native-install" 2nd time. during
2nd boot, i used all those same options i used for GRUB using GRUB
floppy. then once i booted, i did this:
# export TERM=mach
# ./native-install
it gave the same message that i need to boot for 1 more time for 2nd
./native-install but i needed to ignore it. then i created
"/etc/fstab" with / and swap fileystems. i did not have any /home
partition for HURD. simply using 2 GB for / and used the swap from
Arch GNU/Linux.
now when i went into "/dev" and did this:
# ./MAKEDEV hd0s4 hd0s2
it gave me the output "Killed"
what does that mean ?
and after that i was unable to access anything and my Terminal looked like this:
# ls /etc
Killed
# ls /hurd
Killed
# ls /boot
Killed
What exactly went wrong ?
---------- /etc/fstab ------------
[root@arch arnuld]# cat /mnt/gnu/etc/fstab
# <filesystem> <mount point> <type> <options> <dump & pass>
/dev/hd0s4 / ext2 rw 0 1
/dev/hd0s2 none swap sw 0 0
[root@arch arnuld]#
