I'll be risking my comp further and i'll be trying GNU/HURD, Its like extreme sports!
This may actually be less risky than BSD. If you are using the Debian-base binary HURD distro you should be quite at home.
As Dinesh found out first-hand the most important part of trying any new OS is getting the harddisk partitions and naming conventions right - read it over and over a zillion times and take notes(seriously) before you begin.
