Hi: To cross-compile gnumach from Linux you have to specify some flags in configure, to indicate the hurd architecture.
You can find the flag list here: https://www.gnu.org/software/hurd/microkernel/mach/gnumach/building.html Read the instructions for non-Debian systems and 64-bit, and try again P.S.: I redirect this mail to bug-hurd, which is the main maillist now El lunes 16 de junio de 2025, Milos Nikic escribió: > Hello there, > > I am Milos, I am interested in writing code for Hurd. > I am developing inside qemu (on Arch linux) with debian > image debian-hurd-20230608.img. > It loads, boots and looks good!
