just a stupid remark from someone who finally got the hurd running yesterday : I installed the hurd by using the tar-file gnu-0.2.tar.gz Due to the lack of virtual console, I set my first aim to install screen. After downloading the .deb file from the Debian ftp site (and the associated libncurses5, passwd ...) : no luck, segfaults. I then downloaded the sources (again from the Debian ftp site) : compiled fine, but still no screen running. I suppose screen is far from being the easiest program to port from one OS to the other, but it's just annoying to have a single terminal at a time. Still trying to get this screen running :) Thanks for the great work on hurd anyway. Jean-Michel Friedt
