I have installed it with kvm, and it works well. This link will help you to install the GNU/Hurd system,<http://www.gnu.org/software/hurd/hurd/running/debian.html>. And I also recommend you to read this article <http://www.gnu.org/software/hurd/hurd-paper.html>, which explains why FSF is developing a new operating system named the Hurd, which will be a foundation of the whole GNU system. > > Thanks in advance! > > Regards, > Subhashish > > P.S. - If you wish to ignore this, please send a short message; I'll oblige. have fun with the big Hurd world :) -- Yue Lu (陆岳)
