Hello,

This is the updated repository with the necessary patches to compile  
GNU Guix in Debian GNU/Hurd.
  https://github.com/methalo/guix

In the README-hurd file, describe the steps to generate the binaries  
required to boot GNU Hurd (Missing more patches).

  ** Current STATUS

Currently I have error in guile-static-stripped-2.2.2 package[1].

  Steps to reproduce the error:

  1) Manually run :
      
'/gnu/store/6fgz3s8fjva40hsdvs2hs0f5p4bw12jc-guile-static-stripped-2.2.2/bin/guile  
--version'

  Output:

guile: warning: failed to install locale
..
Uncaught exception:
Throw to key misc-error with args ("primitive-load-path" "Unable to  
find file ~S in load path" ("ice-9/boot-9") #f)Can\
not exit gracefully when init is in progress; aborting.
Aborted

Hello,

This is the demo generated with Guix:

https://github.com/methalo/boot-hurd

The binary files were generated in Debian/Hurd and placed in an 'img' file.

The command used to generate the binaries is:

'./pre-inst-env guix system init ~/light.scm /guix'

To test Hurd, execute:

'sudo qemu-system-i386 -enable-kvm -m 1G -hda guixsdhurd.img -curses'

I hope to upload the patches soon to github, for now I need to understand Guix/Guile to create the patches properly.

Comments and help is welcome.

the packages were built on top of Debian/Hurd. At this moment I am copying everything that is compiled into /gnu/store to the image, 
and then create symbolic links so that grub, Mach and Hurd can locate the binaries.

Yes, I have built the VM image according to your notes [1].

Thanks for the feedback.

Hello Manolis,

I will prepare the documentation and a small image of qemu and upload it.

Hola,

Finally I was able to start the Hurd with the binaries generated with the guix package manager.

At the moment the image of Hurd I have built it manually and does not yet have any functionality like GuixSD / Linux.

Next goal:
  * Generate the image file in the style of guix.
  ** For this I have noticed that it is required to compile qemu for the architecture i586-pc-gnu, at the moment I could not compile qemu in Hurd. I have tried to disable some quemu features that come by default; however, I have not yet achieved it.

Other pending things:
  * Some packages fail during the compilation and testing phases.
  * Other packages used by guix, such as lsof are not ported in Hurd yet.

At the moment it is everything, any doubt or help is welcome.


Rene
