You need to install it using Linux.  It doesn't need to be a full Linux
install (IIRC the Debian boot floppies have the required tools to
install from the tarball), but you do need something other than Hurd to
bootstrap with.

There are some good instructions in the Hurd section of the GNU website 
http://www.gnu.org/
