It may be found in the file (about 254 MB compressed) +ftp://prep.ai.mit.edu/pub/gnu/gnumach-1.1.1.tar.gz. + +Diffs from version 1.0 of this distribution are avaiable at +ftp://prep.ai.mit.edu/pub/gnu/gnumach-1.0-1.1.1.diff.gz (about 169 MB +compressed). + +Version 1.1 had some minor accidental problems and is being removed in +favor of this minor update. + +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. + +The md5sum checksums for the files mentioned in this message are: + +45147839691e40b2e67412579e0fcc5d gnumach-1.1.1.tar.gz +35e69cedb4d23b4058be26bd58345a02 gnumach-1.0-1.1.1.diff.Z |
