Annotation of Net2/arch/amiga/bugs, revision 1.1.1.1

1.1       root        1: Current list as of 93-7-5:
                      2: 
                      3: Those I'm aware of:
                      4: -  nfsd and mountd crash regularly when going to multiuser mode...
                      5: -  the console seems to have some problems displaying text when parity is
                      6:    enabled. This shows in a distorted login-prompt (multiuser mode).
                      7: -  the vt200 emulator is really far from perfect, and needs a lot more work
                      8:    to be honestly called a vt200 (or vt320 even) emulator.
                      9: -  the console chops the rightmost character, I guess this is a problem of
                     10:    the display-window, not of the bitmap drawing itself.
                     11: -  8bit characters are all displayed as ^@. Problems could lie in wrong tty
                     12:    settings or the ite driver.
                     13: -  although autoconfig information is passed into the kernel and the hardware
                     14:    table is generated, no I/O-space is currently allocated in kernel VM for 
                     15:    boards. This will probably be one of the first things to fix or nobody is 
                     16:    able to access their boards under BSD ...
                     17: -  sun-style disklabels are not yet supported.
                     18: -  disklabels can't be written back to disk. You'll have to configure your
                     19:    drives under amigados (with hdtoolbox), and just format the partitions
                     20:    under BSD. I think this is a tolerable limitation.
                     21: -  there's currently no provision for reading the realtime-clock, so time
                     22:    is always set using the last modification date of the mounted root 
                     23:    filesystem.
                     24: -  severe crash after dumping to disk...
                     25: 
                     26: to be continued...
