This is a snapshot of Debian &#8220;sid&#8221; at the time of the Debian &#8220;wheezy&#8221; release (May 2013), so it is mostly based on the same sources. It is not an official Debian release, but it is an official Debian GNU\/Hurd port release.<\/p>\n<p>The installation ISO images can be downloaded from <a href=\"http:\/\/ftp.debian-ports.org\/debian-cd\/hurd-i386\/current\/\">Debian Ports<\/a> in the usual three Debian flavors: NETINST, CD, DVD. Besides the friendly Debian installer, a pre-installed disk image is also available, making it even easier to try Debian GNU\/Hurd.<\/p>\n<p>Debian GNU\/Hurd is currently available for the i386 architecture with more than 10.000 software packages available (more than 75% of the Debian archive, and more to come!).<\/p>\n<p>Please make sure to read the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.debian.org\/ports\/hurd\/hurd-install\">configuration information<\/a>, the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gnu.org\/software\/hurd\/faq.html\">FAQ<\/a>, and the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gnu.org\/software\/hurd\/hurd\/documentation\/translator_primer.html\">translator primer<\/a> to get a grasp of the great features of GNU\/Hurd.<\/p>\n<p>Due to the very small number of developers, our progress of the project has not been as fast as other successful operating systems, but we believe to have reached a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gnu.org\/software\/hurd\/hurd\/status.html\">very decent state<\/a>, even with our limited resources.<\/p>\n<p>We would like to thank all the people who have worked on GNU\/Hurd over the past decades. There were not many people at any given time (and still not many people today, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gnu.org\/software\/hurd\/contributing.html\">please join!<\/a>), but in the end a lot of people have contributed one way or another.
