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.
