Re: Everything's broken (was: Debian GNU/Hurd 2023 released!)

I've just installed Debian GNU/Hurd 2023 again, using a simpler Qemu script with IDE disk and cdrom.

It works without problem

This is my script, using a 20G qcow image.

MEMORY=2G
FILE=$HOME/hurd_qemu/hurd2.img
#CDROM=Descargas/debian-sid-hurd-i386-DVD-1.iso
CDROM="$HOME/Descargas/debian-hurd-2023-i386-NETINST-1.iso"
# If I ever need to add a cdrom
    echo "running ssh"

qemu-system-i386 -s -m $MEMORY                                 \
                     -hda $FILE \
                     -cdrom $CDROM \
                     -smp 8                                      \
                     -boot d                                      \
                     -net user,hostfwd=tcp:127.0.0.1:2222-:22     \
                     -net nic,model=e1000                      \
                     -enable-kvm                                  \
                     -no-shutdown \
                     -no-reboot \
                     -vga std \
                     -display gtk;
#+END_SRC

Maybe the Sergey problem can be in the image's big size, so much bigger than the mine, but i'm not sure.

If I got time, I will try to install in real hardware, to check if there are any problem there.

I expect that info are useful

Uh? That's terribly odd: raw vs qcow is supposed to be a host-only
thing, and not have any actual effect on the guest... Possibly it could
even be a qemu bug. It's worth investigating at least.
