+<H3><A HREF="#TOCversion" NAME="version">Latest version</A></H3>
+<P>
+The last stable version of GNU Mach is 1.2, but it is recommended that
+you use the version in CVS instead, as this fixes some bugs that
+prevent the kernel to work on some systems.
+
+<H3><A HREF="#TOCinstall" NAME="install">Installation instructions</A></H3>
+<P>
+GNU Mach can be compiled or cross-compiled easily. The only package
+you are not likely to have installed already is MiG, the Mach
+interface generator. If you cross-compile gnumach, you need a
+cross-MiG for your architecture. You also need the static version of
+the C library for your host architecture, as some functions are taken
+directly from it. We recommend that you use the <A
+HREF="/software/glibc">GNU C library</A>, other C libraries have not
+been tested and might not work. After you have followed the
+installation instructions in the package and the reference manual, you
+should end up with a kernel binary where your boot loader can find it.
+
+<H3><A HREF="#TOCboot" NAME="boot">Booting GNU Mach</A></H3>
+<P>
+To actually use the kernel and boot the GNU operating system, you need
+a boot loader. Not all boot loaders are capable to boot the GNU
+system, you need one that supports the multiboot standard. The
+bootloader of the GNU system is <A HREF="/software/grub/">GNU
+GRUB</A>, which supports a broad range of operating systems including
+GNU/Hurd.
