Re: boot the Hurd with Guix

[rennes]

Hola,

Finally I was able to start the Hurd with the binaries generated with the guix 
package manager.

At the moment the image of Hurd I have built it manually and does not yet have 
any functionality like GuixSD / Linux.

Next goal:
  * Generate the image file in the style of guix.
  ** For this I have noticed that it is required to compile qemu for the 
architecture i586-pc-gnu, at the moment I could not compile qemu in Hurd. I 
have tried to disable some quemu features that come by default; however, I have 
not yet achieved it.

Other pending things:
  * Some packages fail during the compilation and testing phases.
  * Other packages used by guix, such as lsof are not ported in Hurd yet.

At the moment it is everything, any doubt or help is welcome.
