I assume your host system is Debian GNU/Linux. You'll want to install the VM, which basicvally is is package qemu-kvm. You'll want to check that there is kvm support in your kernel. I basically used the install instructions at http://people.debian.org/~sthibault/hurd-i386/installer/cdimage/README.txt But creating a bigger image and giving the vm guest more memory and using cache to speed it up and using a port redirect for ssh. I also had to choose English/US at the start of the installation, since it crashed for me later in the installation when using German/Germany. I use the following line to start the vm: kvm -m 2G -net nic,model=ne2k_pci -net user,hostfwd=tcp::2222-:22 -drive file=hurd-raw.qemu,cache=writeback and during installation the following (some paramters for the install cd added): kvm -m 2G -net nic,model=ne2k_pci -net user,hostfwd=tcp::2222-:22 -cdrom cd-1.iso -boot d -drive file=hurd-raw.qemu,cache=writeback > Would it make sense to create a hurd snapshot build VM? Maybe. There is some annoying slowness of the regression testing. something in theretakes a long time without using the CPU much. I thus use -j 8 to speed up regression testing on Hurd.
