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, DavidI'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.
I've wiped the drive and started over, and started a new, much cleaner document. It can be found at http://faculty.acu.edu/~westk/A_Beginners_Second_Attempt_to_Install_the_Hurd.html
Unfortunately, I've run into problems again, so I still can't report that the Hurd is usable. Give me time . . . .
