I have also applied the trivial updates to all languages, as you told me on IRC that it'd save some time from translators. I have tried to build an xml-based translation (fr) as well as a po-based translation (hu) and they both work fine for i386 and kfreebsd-i386.

I think both have good points. Definition of Debian GNU/kFreeBSD does not need to be destructed by excuse of not-being-Linux. But the waring for non-Linux should remain.

Of course the second and last should be arch specific. HURD may be able to share some text, too :-) -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-boot-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.

Some kFreeBSD port of Installation manual
Hello, This is some beginning of kFreeBSD/Hurd ports of the Installation manual: basically, it does the following. - Add kfreebsd-i386, kfreebsd-amd64 and hurd-i386 archs (not automatically enabled for now). - Add any-i386, any-amd64, any-x86, kfreebsd-any and hurd-any pseudo-archs - Add an arch_kernel variable turned into arch-kernel; entity, which can be used for all places where Linux appears but other kernel names should be able to appear, I've done so in a few places (not thorough). - Add a What is Debian GNU/kFreeBSD part, What is GNU/kFreeBSD would probably be a good idea too. - Add the architectures on which kFreeBSD can run - Tag one section which I know applies to Linux only (Board Devices accessibility). I.e. not so much, but should put the sgml grounds for the rest to come: - Marking Linux-only sections (here debian-hurd people could help). - Adding kFreeBSD information, hardware support and boot menu notably. (I don't believe it's useful to add any information about Hurd at this stage, since the current work on DDE should change things quite a bit, and there's no need to add more work to translators) What do people think about this?
