Hi, I was just digging into the crosshurd package. I installed it using a Debian GNU/Linux stable system. It seemed to go alright. I then rebooted and got to a single user shell. My keyboard wasn't doing command completion and I couldn't type the ./native-install correctly . I then noticed that it couldn't find runsystem. I looked in the FAQ about my keyboard typing problem and saw the issue about the /tmp console being loaded on top of another console. I don't know if this was the case. I then booted into my Debian GNU/Hurd system, formatted the partition, and grabbed crosshurd and installed it. I placed runsystem from my working hurd into /libexec on my new install and fired it up in the subhurd manner and native-install went smoothly. So basically I'm not sure if someone missed putting runsystem in thier of it was my horrible luck. I'm just giving it a go to see how neat it works : ) and to give all yawl my 2 cents. Thanks Matt G.
