This a very trivial change. The former is just an alias of latter. But for new users and contributors like me, it sometimes confuses them what the difference is between the two ones. Is one old and the other new? Or something confusing else. So this patch helps them save some time.

2024-10-13Reworked the faq/drivers page.jbranso@dismail.de
* faq/drivers.mdwn: I changed the recommended hardware to the T60, which is currently the only hardware that you can use the Debian installer cd. I mentioned that you must use the proprietary BIOS to run X (libreboot/coreboot won't work). I removed some unnecessary details. I hinted that rump is the Hurd's future for device drivers.

2024-10-13convert hurd-specific_api.mdwn to use markdown instead of htmljbranso@dismail.de
* hurd/glibc/hurd-specific_api.mdwn: There was a wall of text written in html. I don't really see the point of doing that. We can just use markdown and it'll render fine fine. I also added some details explaining what process_t is. I got the information from an irc log from Samuel. Message-ID: <20241012143852.2101-1-jbranso@dismail.de>

open_issues/smp.mdwn: I copied a guide that Damien email to the Hurd that explains how one might use his smp.c code to test the Hurd's current SMP support. Message-ID: <20241001010932.6035-2-jbranso@dismail.de>
2024-09-22I added some info about a system portjbranso@dismail.de
* faq/system_port.mdwn: mentioned Sergey as an expert in system port, since he completed the AArch64 port. I also bragged that Debian is probably the most "complete" GNU/Hurd distribution. Message-ID: <20240921010651.5189-5-jbranso@dismail.de>
2024-09-22I updated the faq/drivers page to reccommend specific hardware.jbranso@dismail.de

2024-09-22deleted ufs webpage.jbranso@dismail.de
* hurd/translator/ufs.mdwn: ufs has not been used on the Hurd in a long time. The translator was deprecated and removed. Let's remove any mention of it, because there is no real reason to talk about something with which we will never use again. * hurd/translator.mdwn: removed mention of ufs.

2024-06-17add example of how to create a custom filesystem.jbranso@dismail.de
Hey Samuel, this is another modification of a previous commit. Hopefully this addresses your critiques. I also added in "-E root_owner=$UID:0" to some other files, where I thought it was appropirate. Hopefully I didn't make any mistakes. I did test this by the way. I was able to get ~/silly/silly1 to be two nested ext2fs translators. All without having to execute "sudo"! * hurd/translator/ext2fs.mdwn: explain how to create a custom filesystem, and mentioned that the current limit for how many nested ext2fs filesystems there could be...is 32. * faq/still_useful: sbin/mk2fs dummy.fs -> sbin/mk2fs -E root_owner=$UID:0 dummy.fs * hurd/documentation/translators.html: as above. * open_issues_/64-bit_port.mdwn: as above Message-ID: <20240531191015.8761-1-jbranso@dismail.de>

2024-06-02added an image to the hurd/what_is_the_gnu_hurd page.jbranso@dismail.de
* hurd/what_is_the_gnu_hurd.mdwn: I added the image from the open_issues/anatomy_of_a_hurd_system.mdwn. This page is probably something that is viewed a lot. People like images. Message-ID: <20240530173020.2499-5-jbranso@dismail.de>
2024-06-02Note about swapping having issues with rumpdiskSamuel Thibault
2024-05-30I put all "developer references" on hurd/documentation.jbranso@dismail.de
The pages hurd and hurd/documentation both have "documentation sections". That seems a little silly. I am added a link in hurd to "developer documentation" that links to hurd/documentation. * hurd: link to hurd/documentation. * hurd/documentation: combine the documentation from both hurd and hurd/documentation. Message-ID: <20240530173020.2499-3-jbranso@dismail.de>
2024-05-30I linked the hurd/bootstrap page.jbranso@dismail.de

2024-05-27adding in serverboot v2 draft RFC.jbranso@dismail.de
* hurd/bootstrap.mdwn: I inlined the what_is_an_os_bootstrap page, and wrote that the current bootstrap page is out of date and does not include pci-arbiter or rumpdisk. * hurd/what_is_an_os_bootstrap.mdwn: a new web page that is not meant to be viewed directly. Instead hurd/bootstrap and open_issues/serverbootv2 is meant to inline the content. * open_issues/serverbootv2.mdwn: Sergey proposed this new bootstrap for the Hurd. This is a draft RFC document that explains the reasoning behind it. Not that "Serverboot V2" is a working name. We have yet to find a better name for it.
