Arch Hurd is a distribution of the GNU operating system with GNU Hurd kernel (instead of the Linux kernel, that comes with Arch Linux distribution).[1]

The Arch Hurd project was founded on an Arch Linux forum thread[2] in January 2010 and, after a few weeks with many contributions, progressed to the point where it could boot in a virtual machine.[3] It aims to provide an Arch-like user environment (BSD-style init scripts, i686-optimised packages, use of the pacman package manager, rolling-release, and a KISS set up) on the Hurd which is stable enough for use.[1]

Updates

Arch Hurd is currently not at a stable state. Arch Hurd does not have a downloadable image of the operating system although it formerly did at Arch Hurd LiveCD. Although, you can find re-uploads of the operating system[4] and chroot into it via Debian GNU/Hurd and it would be usable.

Despite having a small development team,[5] much progress has been made since its founding, such as booting on real hardware,[6] packaging everything for a basic web server,[7] and the production of an unofficial graphical LiveCD.[8][9][10]

In June 2011, Arch Hurd announced successful integration of Device Driver Environment (DDE) — the framework for Linux drivers on Hurd, which improves the network hardware support in the distribution and makes it nearly usable.[11]

As of December 2024, the official packages were last updated in May 2019[12], and the latest message from Arch Hurd's website is from May 25 2021.[13] Development activity on the Git repository is still occurring.
