1.1 root 1: I am pleased to announce version 1.1 of the GNU distribution of the
2: Mach kernel. It may be found in the file (about 254 MB compressed)
3: ftp://prep.ai.mit.edu/pub/gnu/gnumach-1.1.tar.gz.
4:
5: Diffs from version 1.0 of this distribution are avaiable at
6: ftp://prep.ai.mit.edu/pub/gnu/gnumach-1.0-1.1.diff (42 KB
7: uncompressed).
8:
9: This is a bug-fixing release; the only new feature over version 1.0 is
10: the --enable-kdb configure option which has been added to turn on
11: kernel debugging support.
12:
13: Several bugs have been fixed in this distribution, particularly
14: relating to cross-compilation support.
15:
16: This distribution is only for i386, i486, i586 (pentium), and i686
17: (sexium [pentium pro]) processors on PC-AT compatible machines.
18: Volunteers interested in ports to other architectures are eagerly
19: sought.
20:
21: Most ethernet cards and disk controllers are supported by this kernel;
22: ones for which Linux drivers exist can be ported easily. Non-network
23: devices for which BSD drivers exist can be ported with a little
24: effort, but not much.
25:
26: Bug reports relating to this distribution should be sent to
27: [email protected]. Requests for assistance should be made on
28: [email protected].
