Oh, well, I will try it again w/o the -O hurd and see what happens. > I hope you are not looking at a recent version of the easy guide. > Otherwise I hope that Matthew will fix this soon :) I think the one I was reading was the latest...hold on... http://www.pick.ucam.org/~mcv21/hurd.html http://www.gnu.org/software/hurd/easy.html Both are the same as far as the above lines. > That's okay, as long as the second run is okay.

I will look at the scripts and try to figure out a way to capture my install. Matthew and I have discusses the walkthrough a little offlist. If I can capture it then I will let the hurddocs-volunteer list know so that it can be added to the site. > Let us know if you have further comments or problems. Welcome to the Hurd! Thanks.
