        <WhiteKIBA> we are trying to revive Gentoo/hurd
        <WhiteKIBA> we are using debian as a start
        <WhiteKIBA> we installed portage on debian and are now bootstrapping
          the system into a folder
        <WhiteKIBA> except glibc everything seems fine

          want to know more.

        <WhiteKIBA> natsukao: http://wiki.rout0r.org/index.php/Gentoo/Hurd/en I
          am working on it
        <WhiteKIBA> if i can get glibc to compile correctly i can create a
          stage3 but at the moment it fails
