There is a configuration where you would have gnumach kernel on a linux boot partition and the rest of the GNU system on another partition, but keep in mind that you need _different_ binaries for the Hurd than for Linux. Hurd is no drop in replacement for any other operating system. There is also a configuration where you can keep all Hurd stuff inside a Linux ext2fs partition, in a subdirectory or disk image file. This configuration is mostly untested and undocumented, so I can't recommend it to you. > My second question is : " I have an Indy SGI station. Can i have Hurd for > this computer for replace Irix ? GNU Mach does currently only run on i386/i486/i586 etc platforms, sorry. Thanks, Marcus -- `Rhubarb is no Egyptian god.'
