- I am pleased to announce version 1.1 of the GNU distribution of the
- Mach kernel. It may be found in the file (about 254 MB compressed)
- ftp://prep.ai.mit.edu/pub/gnu/gnumach-1.1.tar.gz.
- Diffs from version 1.0 of this distribution are avaiable at
- ftp://prep.ai.mit.edu/pub/gnu/gnumach-1.0-1.1.diff (42 KB
- uncompressed).
- This is a bug-fixing release; the only new feature over version 1.0 is
- the --enable-kdb configure option which has been added to turn on
- kernel debugging support.
- Several bugs have been fixed in this distribution, particularly
- relating to cross-compilation support.
- This distribution is only for i386, i486, i586 (pentium), and i686
- (sexium [pentium pro]) processors on PC-AT compatible machines.
- Volunteers interested in ports to other architectures are eagerly
- sought.
- Most ethernet cards and disk controllers are supported by this kernel;
- ones for which Linux drivers exist can be ported easily. Non-network
- devices for which BSD drivers exist can be ported with a little
- effort, but not much.
- Bug reports relating to this distribution should be sent to
- bug-hurd@prep.ai.mit.edu. Requests for assistance should be made on
- help-hurd@prep.ai.mit.edu.
