The recommended document for accessing the Hurd CVS on Savannah is at <http://savannah.gnu.org/cvs/?group=hurd>
This is only a brief restatement, which may be inaccurate. Setup your environment with the `CVSROOT` variable and login as anonymous. How you do this may differ between shells.
$ export CVSROOT=":pserver:anoncvs@anoncvs.gnu.org:/cvsroot/hurd"

The attached [[ATTACHURLmodulesx86pc]], or [[ATTACHURLmodules-lightx86pc]], is an example setup, your needs may vary but this one works for standard COTS PC's. Now, how to configure and build the OSKit.
