GNU/Linux did not exist until GNU/Linux existed, therefore, no matter
how savvy a user may have been, he/she could not have installed
GNU/Linux before that point.

He probably required to know how to install GNU/HURD, which is and was
NOT Linux at all. It was a direct UNIX that STILL has yet to be
released.
