I installed the Hurd using only dpkg files on a new system this
weekend and got it booting single user before I ran out of time.
I kept a log of everything I did (including mistakes) that may be
found at http://www.corridor.com/~sfavor/hurd-faq/hurd-log.html.
Thought it might be useful so I put it

I understand. I'm going to mirror it but suggest that you put something
prominent
like "Official site : " at the top of it. Many people will make

FYI, I'll be placing the web pages on www.gnu.org under CVS
control this weekend (either Friday or Saturday evening). This

changing something when I swap things. On the off chance that you
see something odd resulting from the change, plea

After a little discussion with Gordon, the FAQ for Debian GNU/Hurd has
been split into two documents: the Debian GNU/Hurd FAQ and the GNU Hurd
FAQ. Both of these may currently be found under
http://www.corridor.com/~sfavor/hurd-faq.
The Debian GNU/Hurd FAQ should be considered a supplement to the
