+## Hurd Compilation
+
+I checked out the source code on my Ubuntu GNU/Linux system connected to the Internet using:
+
+<pre> cvs -z3 -d:pserver:anonymous@cvs.savannah.gnu.org:/sources/hurd co hurd</pre>
+
+I mounted the hurd directory on Ubuntu from my GNU Hurd system connected to the LAN through NFS:
+
+<pre> settrans -ac /mnt /hurd/nfs ubuntu:/home/shaks/code </pre>
+
+Copy the hurd directory, locally.
+
+For compilation, you require build-essential, libc0.3-dev, hurd-dev. I used Debian GNU Hurd K10 CDs for installation and they are available in the first CD.
+
+<pre>
+ apt-get update
+ apt-get install build-essential libc0.3-dev hurd-dev
+</pre>
+
+Enter into the hurd directory and start building it:
+
+<pre> cd hurd
+ mkdir build
+ cd build
+ ../configure
+ make
+</pre>
+
+There is a "libiohelp needed by" error. So, do a manual compilation for libiohelp.
+
+<pre>
+ cd ..
+ make libiohelp
+ cd build
+ make
+</pre>
+
+There is a "libiostore needed by" error. So, do a manual compilation for libiostore.
+
+<pre>
+ cd ..
+ make libiostore
+ cd build
+ make
+</pre>
+
+There is a "libiohelp.so: No such file or directory" error.
+
+Copy libiohelp/libiohelp.so file to build/libiohelp/ and re-run make,
+
+<pre> make </pre>
+
+The executables are created in the subdirectories in build/ directory.
