To show that this field is not specific to disk/VM images, how about something along these lines: When this field is set, produce a GNU/Hurd operating system. In that case, @code{kernel} must also be set to the @code{gnumach} package---the microkernel the Hurd runs on. @quotation Warning This feature is experimental and only supported for disk images. @end quotation Ludo=E2=80=99.
