Installation help |

Hi,
I have already sent this message but no one send me some suggestions, so
I'll try it again...
I downloaded the first Hurd CD from a mirror and installed it (following
the installation guide). It worked fine (after some 'fights' with grub -
I was using lilo...).
I could run the native-install script as mentioned in the guide.
However, yesterday, when trying to boot the Hurd, it hanged after the
messages:
Floppy driver(s): fd0 is 1.44M
FDC 0 is a post - 1991 82077
I suppose (as someone suggested in the #hurd) that the problem is in the
floppy disk controller. I can try to compile the mach without the floppy
(I have installed the Hurd in a toshiba laptop with a pluggeable floppy,
which is never used...) but I that is very strange as it worked
before...
I have already disabled the floppy disk controller in the BIOS but is keeps
hanging with a message saying that no floppy controller was found...
Please, anyone comment this!
