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