Hi, I have just installed current (and current X) on to my jornada 720. I seem to be having a few problems. I'll list the steps i took to get it installed and then the problems im having. 1st i disklabeled my 1gb kingston flash card setting up a dos partition, a netbsd partition and a swap partition. That all worked fine. I then did a ./build.sh -x -m hpcarm distribution and installed that on the flash card. I ran postinstall and ran the commands it suggested, then coppied the build.sh built /etc over to the flash disk. uudecode'd hpcboot and copied that over aswell as the new kernel. I created a symlink on / pointing to netbsd on the dos partition. I then noticed that the MAKEDEV script didnt exist so i copied those over and built my devices. I set my rc.conf up and booted up the jornada. It booted up fine with the japanese option. Now my problems. On boot syslog complained that authlog, cron, xferlog, lpd-errs and mail log were missing. root obviously had no password at this point and non of his user files (.cshrc .login etc) were present. Is there a command to create them? In the end i coppied them from another system. The permisions on /tmp were wrong, only root had read write access. chmod 777 fixed that. X as root is fine but i cannot start it as a normal user. It just complains there are no screens available. also the ctrl key in X does not work by default i had to add clear control addcontrol = Control_L to xmodmap. X also switches the screen of after 10 mins regardles of whether im typing or not. If anyone knows what i have done wrong with setting it up i would appretiate any help as i plan on writing this up for the new wiki. Thanks Mark -- The NetBSD CVS Digest http://digest.coris.org.uk
