concerning installation of hurd;request from Norway

I am about to try an installation og the gnu-hurd with your mach mikro-kernel.
In this respect I ask for the following:

Which way do You recommend this to be done?
1. Through the base tar.ball described in
   http://web.walfield.org/papers/hurd-installation-guide/english?

   In case: where do I find the floppy-image for the grub-boot described
   at ...walfield...to be downloaded from ftp://alpha.gnu.org/gnu/grub
   Here are several tar.gz;which one is the floppy-image.

2. Through the debian/gnu/hurd CD.iso image of approx.650MB?
   I have downloaded this one from the ftp://gnu.org/pub/iso/hurd-J1
   and is about to burn a CD of it.

I have on my machines Debian-Gnu-Linux and Suse7.3-gnu-linux. I am used to 
work
on consolls and fairly experienced with linux (but in no way specialist like
you Big Brothers over there!)I understand the installation-guides presented
by you, and have read quite a lot about the Mach-kernel,the modified 
Mach-kernel
by GNU,about the translators and thread-mutex you use; have downloaded 
pictures
of the great sons of this Hurd-project!?!,and therefore shown a decent 
interest
for the Hurd. HIRD..(of unix replacing daemons) is a Norwegian word,with 2
applications, by the way.I will come back to this only if you are interested.

Well,hoping not beeing a plague for you,just drop the sufficing words 
concerning my request.Save Your energy for the Hurd so that hurd will conquer
the minds of the people like linux already has done.
Sincerely,

Sigbjorn Storset,Aalesund,Norway.    sigbj-st@frisurf.no
