This is just me thinking out loud...I now have a working hurd vm, but it does 
not have internet access.  I'll play with it some more another day.  Thanks for 
the help people.  And thank Guy.  Your tip worked.
** Trying out the Hurd part 2 [2022-03-30 Wed]

I posted a LONG email to bug-hurd, and I got this email from someone:

#+BEGIN_EXAMPLE
I faced that problem with the latest image. What I did was to resize the image 
with +5GB see
https://cdimage.debian.org/cdimage/ports/latest/hurd-i386/README.txt

The issue seems that the latest image missed space for swap out or for another 
reason.
I don't know if diagnosis is correct or I was lucky.

Try to increase the image size to see it solves your issue.
#+END_EXAMPLE

Well let's give that a try!

#+BEGIN_SRC sh :dir ~/prog/gnu/hurd/vm
qemu-img resize debian-hurd*.img +50G
#+END_SRC

#+RESULTS:
: Image resized.

#+BEGIN_SRC sh :dir ~/prog/gnu/hurd/vm
$ parted debian-hurd*.img
(parted) resizepart 2 100%
(parted) quit
#+END_SRC

#+RESULTS:

#+BEGIN_SRC sh :dir ~/prog/gnu/hurd/vm
sudo losetup -o $((512*1953792)) /dev/loop0 debian-hurd*.img
sudo resize2fs /dev/loop
#+END_SRC

#+RESULTS:
: resize2fs 1.46.4 (18-Aug-2021)
: Resizing the filesystem on /dev/loop0 to 14143232 (4k) blocks.
: The filesystem on /dev/loop0 is now 14143232 (4k) blocks long.

#+BEGIN_SRC sh :dir ~/prog/gnu/hurd/vm
sudo losetup -d /dev/loop0
#+END_SRC

Well let's try running it again

#+BEGIN_SRC sh :dir ~/prog/gnu/hurd/vm :results raw
ls -lha  # the img is now 55G
#+END_SRC

#+RESULTS:
total 1.9G

#+BEGIN_SRC sh
$ qemu-system-i386 -m 4G -display curses -drive 
format=raw,cache=writeback,file=./debian-hurd-20220226.img -no-reboot
#+END_SRC

This time boot worked!  For a second I was actually able to type too!  Then I
switch to a different virtual desktop to copy the output of boot.  When I
switched back to try to press return, the Hurd seemed to freeze.  I see
=login: root=, but trying to type or press enter does not appear to change
anything.

#+BEGIN_EXAMPLE

#+END_EXAMPLE

It probably NOT a good sign that proc is not mounted.  I think I may have
actually made a mistake when I was resizing the image.  And perhaps since I am
running on sway, and the Hurd is running on a terminal that only runs in X is
causing some issues.  Anyway I'll try again with terminal sakura.

#+BEGIN_SRC sh :dir ~/prog/gnu/hurd/vm
 rm debian-hurd-20220226.img
 tar -xz < debian-hurd.img.tar.gz
 qemu-img resize debian-hurd*.img +50G
#+END_SRC

#+RESULTS:

#+BEGIN_SRC sh :dir ~/prog/gnu/hurd/vms

Samuel mentioned that we really should have this =--enable-kvm= option
#+BEGIN_SRC sh :dir ~/prog/gnu/hurd/vm
 qemu-system-i386 -m 4G -display curses -drive 
format=raw,cache=writeback,file=./debian-hurd-20220226.img -no-reboot 
--enable-kvm
#+END_SRC

Ok that seems to work!

Let's change the root password in the vm
#+BEGIN_SRC sh :dir ~/prog/gnu/hurd/vm
passwd
#+END_SRC

That worked.  Let's reboot and try to get it so that I can ssh into the vm.

#+BEGIN_SRC sh :dir ~/prog/gnu/hurd/vm
halt
#+END_SRC

Ok =halt= seems to have broken the machine...It is now just sitting there.  C-c
and C-d is doing nothing.  I cannot get back to a prompt.  And the hurd does not
seem to be shutting down.  What is the command to turn poweroff the hurd?
=poweroff=?  =shutdown=?

Ahh the README has this info

#+BEGIN_EXAMPLE
One can safely shut down the system with

      $ sudo poweroff
#+END_EXAMPLE

Ok, the hurd does NOT seem to be halting...So I am going to force close the
terminal window and see what happens.  I will also try using the same image, but
there's a good chance that I am going to get filesystem corruption.  And #guix
irc mentioned that I should try out =foot= as a minimal wayland only terminal.

#+BEGIN_SRC sh :dir ~/prog/gnu/hurd/vm
 qemu-system-i386 -m 4G -display curses -drive 
format=raw,cache=writeback,file=./debian-hurd-20220226.img -no-reboot 
--enable-kvm
#+END_SRC

Well apparently =halt= + me force closing the terminal window caused some
filesystem corruption.  At bootup, the Hurd said that it noticed some issues
with the root filesystem that it tried to correct.  It was unable to mount it.
It tried to do a reboot, which of course failed because qemu won't let it
(because rebooting the Hurd causes filesystem corruption).

Well let's try this again...

:DeletingHurdImageAndReInstalling:
#+BEGIN_SRC sh :dir ~/prog/gnu/hurd/vm
 rm debian-hurd-20220226.img
 tar -xz < debian-hurd.img.tar.gz

#+END_SRC

#+RESULTS:

#+BEGIN_SRC sh :dir ~/prog/gnu/hurd/vms

:END:

maybe this time I will try to use the correct options for networking.
#+BEGIN_SRC sh :dir ~/prog/gnu/hurd/vm
 qemu-system-i386 -m 4G -net user,hostfwd=tcp:127.0.0.1:2222-:22 -net 
nic,model=e1000 -display curses -drive 
format=raw,cache=writeback,file=./debian-hurd-20220226.img -no-reboot 
--enable-kvm
#+END_SRC

Login worked.  Changing the root password worked.  =ping -c 3 gnu.org= failed.
100% packets lost.  I did run ping as root, which should work right?

=adduser joshua= -> -bash: adduser: command not found

As the demo user =sudo poweroff= works.

Let's power it back on and see if I can ssh into the box.  Am I doing it wrong?

#+BEGIN_EXAMPLE
joshua@crazyhorse ~ (master)> ssh localhost:2222
ssh: Could not resolve hostname localhost:2222: Name or service not known
joshua@crazyhorse ~ (master) [255]> ssh 127.0.0.1:2222
ssh: Could not resolve hostname 127.0.0.1:2222: Name or service not known
joshua@crazyhorse ~ (master) [255]> ssh 127.0.0.1
ssh: connect to host 127.0.0.1 port 22: Connection refused
joshua@crazyhorse ~ (master) [255]> ssh 127.0.0.1
ssh: connect to host 127.0.0.1 port 22: Connection refused
#+END_EXAMPLE

=ping -c 3 gnu.org= still is not working.  There is some tips about how to get
networking to work here:  https://www.debian.org/ports/hurd/hurd-install,
https://darnassus.sceen.net/~hurd-web/hurd/running/qemu/#index7h1, and
https://darnassus.sceen.net/~hurd-web/hurd/running/qemu/networking/ Where should
I start?

It looks like dhcp should work?  Is that running?

It looks like pfinet does the TCP stuff.  Is that running?

=/servers/socket/2= does exist...

The guides online suggest to make sure =/etc/resolv.conf= is correct.

#+BEGIN_SRC shell
cat /etc/resolv.conf
#+END_src

#+Results:   nameserver 10.0.2.3

Looks good!

[[https://www.debian.org/ports/hurd/hurd-install][this guide says that eth0 is 
in /dev/eth0]]  and eth0 does exist! as well as eth1,
eth2, eth3.
#+BEGIN_EXAMPLE
The Debian way is supported starting from sysvinit 2.88dsf-48 and hurd
1:0.5.git20140320-1: /etc/network/interfaces is used like on Linux. The only
difference is that network boards appear in /dev, and interfaces should thus be
specified as /dev/eth0 etc.
#+END_EXAMPLE

It looks like /etc/network/interfaces is an important file in the hurd

#+BEGIN_SRC sh  :dir /ssh:demo@127.0.0.1:/home/demo
cat /etc/network/interfaces
#+END_SRC

#+RESULTS:
: # This file describes the network interfaces available on your system
: # and how to activate them. For more information, see interfaces(5).
:
: source /etc/network/interfaces.d/*
:
: # The loopback network interface
: auto lo
: iface lo inet loopback
:
: # The primary network interface
: auto /dev/eth0
: iface /dev/eth0 inet dhcp

Well I should take a look at =man 5 interfaces= apparently.
