Is “-m 4096” still needed? You mentioned this as a workaround initially, IIRC? Ludo’.

(We can answer that later, no rush.) Possibly, I would suggest for now to follow upstream, IIUC, rumpdisk is still somewhat experimental (and slooowww). I expect upstream/bothstream to drop the "noide" patch at some point, and possibly eradicate the IDE driver from gnumach altogether? >> guix shell qemu -- qemu-system-i386 \ >> -m 4096 \ >> --enable-kvm \ >> --device rtl8139,netdev=net0 \ > > Once we have netdde, we can probably drop that line and use the default > NIC (e1000, IIRC). > > Is “-m 4096” still needed? You mentioned this as a workaround > initially, IIRC? -m 2048 should be enoug, it seems boot with -m 1200; but yea, we do _do_ need more than 1024 (or 512 even)... Greetings, Janneke
I made cosmetic suggestions (as I usually do :-)) but the whole patch series looks great to me, thank you! Ludo’.

Hi! So, with lots of kind help from the folks at #hurd and bug-hurd, and many thanks to Josselin Poiret for sending their amazing "Add libc specific to Hurd and update components" patch set (https://issues.guix.gnu.org/63641, note that these series depend on this!) we now have rumpdisk support for the Hurd.
