First steps after installation.
So you have managed to get past the first `native-install` runs in single-user
mode?
Time to get to work.
[[toc ]]
### Get Networking Running
[[Network]].
Check if your NIC was detected by GNU Mach:
# devprobe eth0
`devprobe` (run as user *root*) will print `eth0` on successful detection. If
it doesn't, your NIC was not detected correctly. You can then try to do the
following (also as user *root*) for getting details:
# cat /dev/klog > ~/klog
[Wait a second, then press `Ctrl-C'.]
Now examine the `~/klog` file.
If the NIC was detected:
# settrans -fgap /servers/socket/2 /hurd/pfinet -i eth0 -a 192.168.1.3 -g 192.168.1.1 -m 255.255.255.0
# Setup GRUB
You surely want grub to have a nice menu entry able to boot GNU, instead of
typing a boring arcane. There are Debian-specific scripts that may help
you. See the [[GrubNotes]] for this.
# Setup `apt-get`
Sometimes getting `apt-get` to work is not straightforward. Good mirrors to
put in `/etc/apt/sources.list` are (as of Jan 2007):
deb http://mirrors.kernel.org/debian unstable main contrib
deb-src http://mirrors.kernel.org/debian unstable main contrib
deb http://ftp.gnuab.org/debian unreleased main
deb-src http://ftp.gnuab.org/debian unreleased main
`apt-get` update a couple of times if some file fails to download.
<!-- As long as I am around (which is as off February 2005) I never ever had to
do such following frobbing. Should we remove this? --[[tschwinge]] -->
If when doing your first `apt-get`, `dpkg` complains of missing programs, [try
to cheat it this
way](http://lists.debian.org/debian-hurd/1999/05/msg00187.html):
# ln -s /sbin/ldconfig /bin/ldconfig
# ln -s /bin/true /bin/update-rc.d
# ln -s /bin/true /bin/start-stop-daemon
# ln -s /bin/true /bin/install-info
# ln -s /bin/true /bin/update-alternatives
Installing packages without having a network connection is described
[[Distrib/DebianAptOffline]].
# [[translator/Random]]
You often need `scp` and `ssh`. Sadly the Debian GNU/Hurd does not yet come
with any default random translator package installed. See
[[translator/random]] for details, the following is just a quick recap.
cd && mkdir tmp && cd tmp
wget http://kilobug.free.fr/hurd/random-64.tar.gz
tar xvfz random-64.tar.gz
cp random /hurd/
settrans -c /dev/random /hurd/random \
--seed-file /var/run/random-seed --secure
settrans -c /dev/urandom /hurd/random \
--seed-file /var/run/urandom-seed --fast
chmod 0644 /dev/random /dev/urandom
apt-get install ssh
# [[Console]]
The latest Hurd package in Debian, plus the `native-install` script, creates
all necessary device nodes and other magic. You just need to edit
`/etc/default/hurd-console` to tune the parameters and tell it to start at
bootup.
You can also call the Hurd console manually with the proper arguments:
console -d vga -d pc_kbd --repeat=kbd -d pc_mouse --repeat=mouse \
-d generic_speaker -c /dev/vcs
cd /dev
ln -s cons/kbd .
ln -s cons/mouse .
# [[Hurd/DebianXorg]]
You first must have setup the virtual console. See above.
Assuming you've installed WindowMaker and have tried running `startx` already:
[/etc/X11/XF86Config-4]
Section "Module"
# Load "dri"
# Load "speedo"
.
.
.
EndSection
Section "InputDevice"
Identifier "Configured Mouse"
Driver "mouse"
Option "CorePointer"
Option "Device" "/dev/mouse"
Option "Protocol" "osmouse"
EndSection
Make sure not to have the `Emulate3Buttons` and `ZAxisMapping` settings set, as
they lead to problems with e.g. dragging windows around.
[/etc/profile]
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/X11R6/lib:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH
# What about package XYZ?
See if you can find a useful tip in [[package_troubleshooting]].
