I am successfully running the Hurd on a Gateway Solo 2150 laptop. Some people may encounter hardware problems if they are sharing an IRQ or something, but for me the Hurd boots up fine on my laptop. You need to provide us with the complete error message or with more information on what it is doing and also maybe 'cat /proc/interrupts' from GNU/Linux too. Also, there's no pcmcia support so unless you have a NIC installed on the PCI bus or whatever you won't be able to do networking with it.
