I just installed the Hurd on a Gateway E-1800. It's a bare minimum install, with lots of broken-ness.

And they say installing Debian GNU/Linux is hard. Debian GNU/Linux is a piece of cake. If anyone ever complains about how hard it is to install Debian again, point 'em to the Hurd.

But I'm having fun . . .   :-)

Maybe you could keep us posted on how useable the Hurd is?

TIA,

Well, as I mentioned, there's a lot of broken-ness at the moment. But I'm overcoming some sort of hurdle every half-hour to an hour or so, so it's got that "work-work-work-REWARD!" routine going for it.

I'm keeping notes at http://faculty.acu.edu/~westk/A_Beginners_Attempt_to_Install_the_Hurd.html. Be aware they are very "random". Some time later I may clean them up.
