Hi,

I tried to install Debian GNU/Hurd (20180220, 20180222 snapshot) to my
notebook (via virtualbox) but towards the end of the installation the
grub install always failed.
Then i tried install to another desktop machine (with no virtualbox),
but i receive the same error..
I post a few console log, maybe help:
/var/lib/dpkg/info/grub-installer postinst: line 35: db_input not found
configuring 'grub-installer' failed with error code 1

Perhaps rather try actually-tested images from http://cdimage.debian.org/cdimage/ports/latest/hurd-i386/
The daily images are just not tested.

This is now fixed in today's daily image.

Hello,

Thank you, i downloaded the daily image, and tested :)
Yes, now i can install the Hurd, but:

The apache2 web server shows error, and not start.. (the 20171101 stable
version too..)
I did this:
a2dismod mpm_event
a2enmod mpm_prefork

..and now the apache2 is run.

(remark: i get twice every email from you) (??)

Hi Sztrepka Pál

The reason you get the email twice, is because you are answering Samuel
directly and having "help-hurd" as CC.

In Thunderbird, you have the option to "Reply-list".
