A good place to start is to use the Hurd. I consistantly have difficulty running the Hurd on qemu, so I run it on real hardware: https://hurd.ion.nu/faq/drivers.html Incidentally I sell Hurd laptops: https://hurdos.com Most smart Hurd developers seem to run the Hurd via qemu. I edit the wiki a lot, answer questions that people post on the mailing list, answer questions on irc. A good thing to do, is to try to do something cool with the Hurd...say by running a subhurd: https://hurd.ion.nu/hurd/subhurd.html If the instructions don't make sense to you, ask for help, and then update the documentation. That's how we got this documentation: https://hurd.ion.nu/hurd/running/flash_qemu_img.html People had told me that I could flash the Hurd to real hardware and install that way. Well, I eventually wrote that wiki page once I understood how to do it. You could make images for the Hurd wiki like this one: https://hurd.ion.nu/hurd/translator/eth-multiplexer.html I actually made that via inkscape whilst running the Hurd on real hardware! Let me know if you have any other questions! Joshua
