<damo22>youpi: should i send a mail to the list regarding upgrading of rumpkernel? https://git.zammit.org/rumpkernel-debian.git/log/?h=develop this branch works

<damo22>i cant mail in patches because one of the patches is 200MB

<gfleury>damo22: does rumpdusbdisk required an another translator

<damo22>its built as a separate translator yes

<damo22>because it hosts the entire usb stack

<damo22>but it is a drop in replacement for rumpdisk

<damo22>ideally usb would be split into two parts

<damo22>host controller and peripheral drivers

<damo22>but i dont know how to do that yet

<gfleury>How do you mount a usb device?

<damo22>i did it at boot but i need to check how to do it without booting off the usb

<damo22>Probably:

<damo22>settrans -a /dev/rumpusb /hurd/rumpusbdisk

<damo22>settrans -a /dev/sd0 /hurd/storeio -T part:1:device@/dev/rumpusb:sd0

<damo22>that will give you block device on /dev/sd0

<damo22>you can drop the part:1 thing

<damo22>mount -t ext2fs /dev/sd0 /mnt

<damo22>gfleury: but there is a change i havent mailed in yet that links a missing library with the usb disk driver

<gfleury>It doesn't in your branch

<gfleury>damo22: i have a fix for smp 1

<damo22>gfleury: a fix for smp 1?

<damo22>what is it

<gfleury>In start_other_cpus if ncpus == 1 just return

<damo22>gnumach does not hang

<damo22>the boot process hangs

<damo22>but you may have spotted something there that could be fixed

<damo22>i think its unrelated to the boot hang

<gfleury>But this seems to fix it. It also logic sinc e there is just one cpu no need to continue

<damo22>but that does not explain the hang with smp 2

<damo22>feel free to mail in a fix

<damo22>i just mailed in my fix for usb

<ZhaoM>Darnassus.sceen.net is DOWN

<youpi>damo22: better send a mail with the url to be merged, yes
