+ <mcsim> hi. I'm having problems with copying directory from host machine to
+ hurd image. I mount hurd image at host and than use "cp -r" to copy
+ directory. Then I unmount image and start qemu. When I try to see
+ contents of the directory I get error "Computer bought the farm".
+ <braunr> mcsim: are you using the ext4 driver from linux ?
+ <mcsim> I use image debian-hurd-20140211.img from
+ <braunr> if so, avoid it
+ <mcsim> ok
+ <mcsim> i'll try
+ <mcsim> braunr: do I have to compile module on my own? because modprobe
+ ext2 && lsmod | grep ext2 give no output?
+ <braunr> maybe
+ <braunr> mcsim: what kernel are you using ?
+ <mcsim> 3.12
+ <braunr> oh
+ <mcsim> braunr: what is wrong with it?
+ <braunr> grep 'EXT[234]' /boot/config*
+ <braunr> it probably uses ext4 for ext2 and ext3
+ <braunr> and i don't think it's possible to simply load the ext2fs module
+ <braunr> because the options are mutually exclusive iirc
+ <mcsim> # CONFIG_EXT2_FS is not set
+ <mcsim> is there another way to copy data?
+ <braunr> probably not
+ <braunr> (check for CONFIG_EXT4_USE_FOR_EXT23)
+ <gg0> mcsim: install 3.10
+ http://snapshot.debian.org/package/linux/3.10.11-1/#linux-image-3.10-3-686-pae_3.10.11-1

+ <mcsim> gg0: thank you
