Flattery gets you everything.

Not this time round.  If there are problems, then an intitial upgrade as
with F1 (or was it D1).  I have attemped to create a tarball using a
couple of alterative routes and fallen on my face.  However, I am
carefully preserving the potato boot-floppies as it has a nice routine for
creating the Linux tarball which can easily be extracted, and in theory
should be able to create a Hurd tarball.  But I failed on my first
attempts.
