Hi! Sorry for the late follow-up, I'd just gotten around to cross-referencing my README and looked at the archive.

I repacked a netinst ISO from http://cdimage.debian.org/cdimage/ports/latest/hurd-i386/current/, dated 2020-01-01 with a kernel from https://people.debian.org/~sthibault/hurd-i386/installer/cdimage/daily/, dated 2020-06-10, since the ISOs from the latter directory didn't want to boot for not finding a server, and it worked well in QEMU; partman picked up existing GPT partitions, and allowed creating a fresh GPT partlabel as well. Installation proceeded until partway through some configuration step due to some glibc versioning fiasco, but I'm assuming it's to do with mixing packages from January with the today's archive. So AFAICT, there's nothing to enable and it should Just Work™. Best, наб
