Do you mean the method documented at http://www.debian.org/ports/hurd/hurd-install ? I believe that the dpkg method is no longer supported. The tar acrhive method is preferred at this point. Up to date instructions are available at http://web.walfield.org/pub/people/neal/papers/hurd-installation-guide/english/hurd-install-guide.html There are also French and Spanish translations of this guide, I believe. > GNU/Linux cross-installation worked, I set up GRUB (I think) the > right way, but at Hurd boot, I get one message "SCSI IO error dev > 08:04 block XXXX absolute block YYYYYY" (or was it "sector" instead > of block?) ... I think GNUmach reports an error at boot if you have an extended partition. It is non-fatal. I am not able to say whether the above error message is that error message, tho'. Hope that helps.
