I’d just like to note that "Hurd in 140 letters command" still works: http://www.draketo.de/english/free-software/howto-hurd-140-chars wget http://people.debian.org/~sthibault/hurd-i386/debian-hurd.img.tar.gz; tar xf de*hu*gz; qemu-system-x86_64 -hda de*hu*g -m 1G > * It is now possible to run subhurds as unprivileged user, thus > providing easy lightweight virtualization. It would be great to have a tutorial which shows starting a subhurd very concisely — ideally starting with the qemu image as above so other people can follow the tutorial with minimal fuss. Subhurds are one of the features which might actually get companies interested in the Hurd. Can we already run subhurds from a shared readonly qemu image with per-subhurd unionfs translators to store all writes in separate locations?
