-
-Even though it is customarily used *for* booting GNU/Hurd systems, [[GRUB]],
-specifically GRUB legacy (which is still in wide-spread use, despite that
-rather depricative nickname), has never been ported to be installable when
-attempted to be installed *from* GNU/Hurd systems:
-
-    # grub-install \(hd0\)
-    df: Warning: cannot read table of mounted filesystems
-    df: Warning: cannot read table of mounted filesystems
-    Could not find device for /boot: Not found or not a block device.
-
-There is a patch, [[grub-install.patch]], to fix that.
-
-
-`grub-install`, however, still fails while invoking `grub`:
-
-    # grub-install \(hd0\)
-    The file /boot/grub/stage1 not read correctly.
-
-    # grub
-    [...]
-    grub> dump (hd0,0)/boot/grub/stage1 /tmp/grub_stage1
-    
-    Error 18: Selected cylinder exceeds maximum supported by BIOS
