Debian GNU/Hurd

From Free net encyclopedia

Debian GNU/Hurd is the Debian Project's distribution of the GNU operating system with the 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 GNU/Hurd. However, the Hurd itself remains under development, and as such is not ready for use in production systems. Accordingly, most Debian users run stable distributions based on the Linux kernel.

The GNU/Hurd operating system can be tried out using a LiveCD (see external links).
