ArchHurd - это проект по портированию GNU/Linux дистрибутива ArchLinux на ядро GNU Hurd. Своей целью проект ставит создания Arch-подобного окружения (Скрипты инициализации в стиле BSD, оптимизация под i686, использование pacman и abs для управления пакетами, rolling-release, и верность принципам KISS) вокруг ядра Hurd, считая при этом Hurd достаточно стабильным если уж и не в качестве основанной ОС, то хотя бы для двойной загрузки
В проекте так же как и в ArchLinux используется pacman и abs. Несмотря на то что анонс о начале проекта был ещё в начале этого года на данный момент готовых пакетов не так уж и много, но они своевременно обновляются и их количество растет. К тому же проект имеет аналог репозитория пользовательских пакетов (AUR), в котором из-за молодости проекта не так много PKGBUILD'ов
Изначально распространяясь в качестве скрипта для сборки окружения установщик переродился в образ диска так же как и в ArchLinux совмещающего в себе LiveCD и возможность установки ArchHurd на жесткий диск.
Пожелаем проекту удачи!
