Hello,
I transfered the second release candidate of CRUX 2.1.1-64bit[1] to crux.danm.de yesterday.
No problem with booting from the ISO this time. It booted OK from an Intel P4 64-bit processor (and didn't boot OK from an AMD Athlon 32-bit processor). Doing 'ports -u' still has problems because of the missing 'libidn' shared library. Perhaps the libidn port should be a package on the CD? A general comment: the installation is a little different from that of Crux 2.1 (32-bit), i.e., the use of udev. During the installation I needed to do the following: - replace: mount -t devfs devfs /mnt/dev with: mount -t sysfs sysfs /mnt/sys - Sometime after doing the chroot, but before doing the 'make all' for the kernel, execute 'start_udev'. When I didn't do the start_udev the 'make all' had problems and 'make modules_install' did not work at all. When sysfs was not mounted, lilo just laughed at me. I am not sure if this is right or the best way, since I am quite spastic in my knowledge of udev. Anyway, perhaps a little note or README about differences in the installation from what is documented in the handbook might be helpful- well, it would probably be helpful to me, at least :^) Regards -- Terry Maher (tel@tel-fi.net) Paris, France
