Debian and its clones Debian GNU/Hurd can now be installed a little easier. "This month Philip Charles created a new installation CD, the L series, for the Hurd, which brings us a big step towards installing the Hurd from the Hurd (without the need of a Linux-based installer). If you enjoy testing stuff, please give it a try."

Another HURD related news item :-P

I really do like the idea, but I gave up years ago waiting for them to get anything serious running. It seems like every time they encounter any sort of problem, they spend a year or two researching the next great microkernel to base the thing on, and therefore actual development on the Hurd itself stays stagnant.
