pci-arbiter: netfs startup - chicken/egg problem

Hi, I think we have another chicken/egg problem: netfs needs an underlying node to expose pcifs on, so that the disk driver can start up and expose the real underlying node. It seems like diskfs_startup_diskfs opens the real disk and finds an actual root fs node, but we can't do that in netfs u

Boot proposition for Debian Hurd on USB keys

Well, realizing that I would need to make a local mirror of Debian (to be edited by debian-cd, what a strange idea!) to build my own iso... I came to think how I expect Hurd (Debian Hurd I suppose) to boot. How would I do it? The way most people expect to try an OS today, is by writing it (th
