Ognyan Kulev:
Ok, thanks for your reply! The reason for me asking is that I'm writing
a simulator [1] and would like to focus on targets that the Hurd might
run on. It is in a very early stage so doing full x86 simulation is out
of the question for the moment.
Just curious: what makes this simulator different than Bochs[1] (except the platform)? Is it the integrated debugger?
The main difference is that GUSS will support several targets, not just
x86 (Pentium) -- and it will have many profiling facilities and complex break-
and watchpoints (conditional break/watch:es using guile-scripts). For example,
to my knowledge, Bochs does not gather branch statistics.

:-) I was really impressed by the log[2] that shows the Hurd running on MIPS.
Yeah, it is cool. I wonder how bit-rotten the code is. I guess that
code for GNUmach has not changed that much (not as much as the Hurd code anyway)

Hm, I wonder why the second link is not included in the home page (or I didn't search enough).
The reason for that is that the code is not yet commited to CVS repository,
and I do not want people fetching the code from the repository and then complaining
about missing features :)
