Nope. That's the only error message that I get. :(

It outputs:
perl: warning: Setting locale failed.
perl: warning: Please check that your locale settings:
LANGUAGE = (unset),
LC_ALL = (unset),
LANG = "en_US.UTF-8"
are supported and installed on your system.
perl: warning: Falling back to the standard locale ("C").
OK
So I should probably figure out how to set my language and LC_ALL...

I'll have to give that a shot. This might be obvious, but I'm afraid to
commit patches for the wiki, until I can see the results of the
patches. ie: I don't want to write incorrect markdown, and the only way
to make sure it is correct, is to render it locally. You probably know
this, and I'm just ranting. :)

I use a shell script:
[joshua@dobby ~]$ which hurd
/home/joshua/programming/bash/hurd
[joshua@dobby ~]$ cat $(which hurd)
#!/bin/bash
modprobe kvm
modprobe kvm_intel
cd ~/programming/gnu/hurd/vm/
MEMORY=2G
FILE=debian-hurd-2017-11-01.img
# If I ever need to add a cdrom
echo "running ssh"
qemu-system-i386 -m $MEMORY -net nic \
-net user,
hostfwd=tcp:127.0.0.1:2222-:22 \
-drive file=$FILE,cache=writeback,format=raw \
-enable-kvm \
-curses \
-no-reboot;
# -curses \
# -machine kernel_irqchip=off \
Just last night I had some trouble sshing into the vm too, so I'll have
to investigate that.

Apparently I'm pulling from braunr's repo. I think
joshua@debian:~/programming/hurd-web$ git remote -v

git://darnassus.sceen.net/hurd-web.git (fetch)
origin
git://darnassus.sceen.net/hurd-web.git (push)

Well maybe. I changed the script to this:
[joshua@dobby ~]$ cat $(which hurd)
#!/bin/bash
modprobe kvm
modprobe kvm_intel
cd ~/programming/gnu/hurd/vm/
MEMORY=2G
FILE=debian-hurd-2017-11-01.img
# If I ever need to add a cdrom
echo "running ssh"
qemu-system-i386 -m $MEMORY \
-net user -net nic, model=rtl8139 \ # make wiki use a
driver card that gnumach has available in the kernel
hostfwd=tcp:127.0.0.1:2222-:22 \
-drive file=$FILE,cache=writeback,format=raw \
-enable-kvm \
-curses \
-no-reboot;
# -machine kernel_irqchip=off \
I then got this error:
[joshua@dobby ~]$ hurd
running ssh
Gtk-Message: 11:23:18.177: Failed to load module "canberra-gtk-module"
qemu-system-i386: -net nic,: Could not open 'model=rtl8139': No such file or
directory

P.S. well frick. I had a script that worked to boot the hurd at some
point. Now I don't. The script that I now have, fails with this:
[joshua@dobby ~]$ hurd
running ssh
qemu-system-i386: -net user,: Unknown protocol 'hostfwd=tcp'
So I'll have to disable ssh forwarding for the moment until I get this
all figured out. Thanks for the help!
