Everything should be in hurd.texi.  As the manual says:

Audience
========

   This manual is designed to be useful to everybody who is interested
in using, administering, or programming the Hurd.

   If you are an end-user and you are looking for help on running the
Hurd, the first few chapters of this manual describe the essential
parts of installing, starting up, and shutting down a Hurd workstation.
If you need help with a specific program, the best way to use this
manual is to find the program's name in the index and go directly to
the appropriate section.  You may also wish to try running `PROGRAM
--help', which will display a brief usage message for PROGRAM (*note
Foundations::).

   The rest of this manual is a technical discussion of the Hurd servers
and their implementation, and would not be helpful until you want to
learn how to modify the Hurd.
