+If you get the error `bad hypermeta data` when trying to mount an ext3
+partition from GNU/Linux, that is usually because the file system has not been
+unmounted cleanly (maybe GNU/Linux got suspended to disk) and the Hurd cannot
+mount it as ext2 without checking.  Either boot back into GNU/Linux and unmount
+it or you can try to run `fsck.ext3` from GNU/Hurd directly.

+[[!meta title="Boot seems to get stuck at EATA probing"]]
+
+In some virtual machines (e.g. VirtualBox), "probing eata on XXX" may be
+quite long. This is apparently due to poor efficiency of the virtualizer, not
+Mach. There is no such issue on real hardware or using qemu/kvm.

+
+dev 02:00 is the floppy drive. This message simply means that reading the floppy
+was attempted, but no floppy disk was inserted, so it failed. It commonly
+happens during installer disk detection, or grub setup, and is completely
+harmless.

+Copying baseGNU to the virtual disk works. Even booting got through but when I
+try to run native-install it never gets to the very end. First time it froze on
+*sed* package, the other time on *sysv-rc*.

+
+>> Thank You very much, more memory solved the freezing.
