I was able to get the bootpartition (abPartition) to give some output
(the screen with 10 seconds until auto-boot, -v for debug, ? for help)
but due to lack of space and free partitions on my first drive (primary
a8 on 2nd drive wasn't found) I had no a8Partition and couldn' complete
the boot. The Machine is a P3/350 Mhz with 128 Mb Ram, RivaTNT, UDMA 8
Gb Harddisk, Intel 440BX Chipset.

On a P1/90 Mhz, 16 Mb Ram, miro Videocard, 1 Gb (PIO 4), Via Chipset it
refused to boot.

I booted via Grub, which can't handle the partition, but chainloading
abPart. worked.

Via Linux I was able to mount the a8-part. . I used 'mount -t ufs -o
ufstype=44bsd /dev/hda4 /mnt'. It's the same option as for
Free|Net|OpenBSD and give rw access. I haven't tried to write, as I have
no possibility to verify the result.

Anyone ever tried the Hurd on Darwin / Darwin/Intel?
