RE: Hurd restarts immediately after grub2

Thus the command for booting Mach would be:

        multiboot /boot/gnumach.gz gnumach.gz root=device:?d?s?

And the attatched Hurd servers:

        module /hurd/ext2fs.static ext2fs.static
--multiboot....$(task-resume)
        module /lib/ld.so.1 /hurd/exec exec $(exec-task=task-create)

Am I right? Because I also tried this, or a variation of this, and it
yeilded the same results.
