bug#40542: wip-hurm-vm build failure

[Christopher Howard]

Thank you, I'd like to try ssh. Would someone be willing to share what qemu and ssh commands they are using to establish the connection?

I'm having some trouble playing around with the VM, because a lot of

weird things are happening with keyboard input into the qemu

window. It seems like the meta keys (shift, ctrl, alt, super) are

behaving in strange ways, or that terminal state is getting corrupted

somehow. E.g., sometimes shift key stops working, or the cursors jumps

up to the middle of the screen, or text gets garbled.

Since yesterday I've been seeing that too.  I'm pretty sure that if you

build a VM from core-uupdates, the console is fine.

I haven't looked into the details of the console/tty setup, so I must

have messed-up something.  Sorry!

Meanwhile we do have ssh login :-)

The startup now goes like this

    startup -> runsystem -> init -> runsystem.hurd -> rc -> shepherd

and; i would like to move towards

    -startup -> rc -> shepherd

if that's possible.
