I have tried everything I can think of to get Nethack
to run without crashing, but at least every other game
ends with:
Suddenly, the dungeon collapses.
nethack: IOT trap - Core dumped
I can't figure out what is causing this - please help!
Thanks in advance!

I'm running an AT-Clone with Microport SYSV AT 286 V2.4 Please someone can help me !

Has anyone else gotten this to run under V/AT 2.3? I'd like to see their config.h and unixconf.h files! -- Seth J.

Ok, to bring this discussion to an end, these are the changes I made to get nethack3.0, patchlevel 3 running under SV/AT 2.3.0-L. The Makefile.src refers to an xmalloc library. This is a malloc implementation I got from Charles Hedrick. I often use that one because it greatly reduces the amount of sbrk() system calls (and hence, the amount of swapping activity). A more important feature may be that this allocator rounds up the requested number of bytes to the nearest power of two. That may make programs more tolerant for writing beyond the end allocated memory than if one would use the standard malloc() implementation. So, if my changes alone do not solve your problems, contact me and I will mail the source to the xmalloc library. *** ./include/unixconf.h- Fri Sep 8 23:12:55 1989 --- ./include/unixconf.h Fri Sep 8 23:29:44 1989 *************** *** 21,30 **** /* #define BSD /* define for 4.n BSD */ /* also for relatives like SunOS */ ! #define ULTRIX /* define for Ultrix v3.0 or higher (but not lower) */ /* Use BSD for < v3.0 */ /* "ULTRIX" not to be confused with "ultrix" */ ! /* #define SYSV /* define for System V */ /* #define NETWORK /* if running on a networked system */ /* e.g. Suns sharing a playground through NFS */ --- 21,30 ---- /* #define BSD /* define for 4.n BSD */ /* also for relatives like SunOS */ ! /* #define ULTRIX /* define for Ultrix v3.0 or higher (but not lower) */ /* Use BSD for < v3.0 */ /* "ULTRIX" not to be confused with "ultrix" */ ! #define SYSV /* define for System V */ /* #define NETWORK /* if running on a networked system */ /* e.g. Suns sharing a playground through NFS */ *************** *** 116,122 **** #define tgetch getchar #endif ! #define SHELL /* do not delete the '!' command */ #include "system.h" --- 116,122 ---- #define tgetch getchar #endif ! /* #define SHELL /* do not delete the '!' command */ #include "system.h" *** ./include/config.h- Fri Sep 8 23:12:35 1989 --- ./include/config.h Fri Sep 8 23:45:45 1989 *************** *** 21,31 **** /* #define AMIGA /* define for Commodore-Amiga */ /* #define TOS /* define for Atari 1040ST */ ! /* #define STUPID /* avoid some complicated expressions if your C compiler chokes on them */ /* #define STUPID_CPP /* use many small functions instead of macros to avoid overloading limited preprocessors */ ! /* #define TERMINFO /* uses terminfo rather than termcap */ /* should be defined for most, but not all, SYSV */ /* in particular, it should NOT be defined for the * UNIXPC unless you remove the use of the shared --- 21,31 ---- /* #define AMIGA /* define for Commodore-Amiga */ /* #define TOS /* define for Atari 1040ST */ ! #define STUPID /* avoid some complicated expressions if your C compiler chokes on them */ /* #define STUPID_CPP /* use many small functions instead of macros to avoid overloading limited preprocessors */ ! #define TERMINFO /* uses terminfo rather than termcap */ /* should be defined for most, but not all, SYSV */ /* in particular, it should NOT be defined for the * UNIXPC unless you remove the use of the shared *************** *** 44,50 **** */ #ifndef WIZARD /* allow for compile-time or Makefile changes */ ! #define WIZARD "izchak" /* the person allowed to use the -D option */ #endif #define LOGFILE "logfile" /* larger file for debugging purposes */ --- 44,50 ---- */ #ifndef WIZARD /* allow for compile-time or Makefile changes */ ! #define WIZARD "games" /* the person allowed to use the -D option */ #endif #define LOGFILE "logfile" /* larger file for debugging purposes */ *************** *** 57,64 **** * smaller bones/level/save files, but require additional code and time. */ ! #define COMPRESS "/usr/local/compress" ! /* #define ZEROCOMP /* Use only if COMPRESS is not used -- Olaf Seibert */ #define CHDIR /* delete if no chdir() available */ --- 57,64 ---- * smaller bones/level/save files, but require additional code and time. */ ! /* #define COMPRESS "/usr/local/compress" */ ! #define ZEROCOMP /* Use only if COMPRESS is not used -- Olaf Seibert */ #define CHDIR /* delete if no chdir() available */ *************** *** 68,74 **** * If you define HACKDIR, then this will be the default playground; * otherwise it will be the current directory. */ ! #define HACKDIR "/usr/games/lib/nethackdir" /* * Some system administrators are stupid enough to make Hack suid root --- 68,74 ---- * If you define HACKDIR, then this will be the default playground; * otherwise it will be the current directory. */ ! #define HACKDIR "/usr/games/lib/nethack3dir" /* * Some system administrators are stupid enough to make Hack suid root *** ./src/unixmain.c- Fri Sep 8 23:17:34 1989 --- ./src/unixmain.c Fri Sep 8 23:29:48 1989 *************** *** 101,106 **** --- 101,108 ---- u.uhp = 1; /* prevent RIP on early quits */ u.ux = FAR; /* prevent nscr() */ (void) signal(SIGHUP, (SIG_RET_TYPE) hangup); + (void) signal(SIGSEGV, (SIG_RET_TYPE) hangup); + (void) signal(SIGBUS, (SIG_RET_TYPE) hangup); /* * Find the creation date of this game, *** ./src/save.c- Fri Sep 8 23:16:45 1989 --- ./src/save.c Fri Sep 8 23:29:53 1989 *************** *** 77,82 **** --- 77,83 ---- hangup(){ hu = TRUE; (void) dosave0(); + settty("Game saved...\n"); exit(1); return 0; } *** ./src/Makefile.src- Mon Aug 28 19:23:22 1989 --- ./src/Makefile.src Fri Sep 8 23:29:46 1989 *************** *** 10,16 **** # 'Sysatt' -- AT&T UNIXPC, 7300, 3B1 # 'Systos' -- Atari # 'SysV-AT' -- Microport 286 UNIX (put -DDUMB in CFLAGS) !
