kernel debugger

[Constantine Kousoulos]

Hello everybody!

At first, i tried installing debian-gnu-hurd-current.tar.gz on my amd-based 
notebook. That effort failed to even boot hurd for the first time. So i compiled 
GNU Mach only with ide drivers and the kernel debugger options enabled. That 
failed booting too. After loading all the modules, at boot time, the following 
message appeared:

start /hurd/ext2fs.static: kernel General protection trap, eip 0x15b272
kernel: General protection (13), code=23b
stopped at 0x15b272: ret
db>

At least the debugger works!

Does anybody have a suggestion where/how i should start looking for the root of 
the problem?

Do you think i should better find a pentium-based computer to hack hurd to avoid 
an endless series of incompatibility problems with my amd notebook?


Best regards,
Constantine
