Debian GNU/Hurd
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Debian GNU/Hurd is the Debian Project's distribution of the GNU operating system (with the GNU Hurd as its kernel).
Debian GNU/Hurd has been in development for years, but still has not been officially released. Roughly half of the software packaged for Debian GNU/Linux has been ported to the GNU Hurd. However, the Hurd itself remains under development, and as such is not ready for use in production systems. Most Debian users run Debian GNU/Linux, rather than Debian GNU/Hurd.
The current version of Debian GNU/Hurd is K14 (released 2006-11-27). It works on i386 and AMD64 PCs.
GNU can be tried out using a LiveCD.
