***Server sets mode: +nt
<gnu_srs1>Hello, just a quick question: What is wrong when boot hangs at: start ext2fs: Hurd server bootstrap: ext2fs[device:hd0s1] exec <here> startup proc auth
<gnu_srs1>What's the difference between servers.boot and the grub.cfg entries? They are identical. which one is executed during boot?
<jrtc27> https://www.gnu.org/software/hurd/doc/hurd_3.html#SEC14

<jrtc27>$ settrans /mnt /hurd/ex2fs --readonly /dev/hd2s1
<jrtc27>$ boot -d -D /mnt -I /mnt/boot/servers.boot /dev/hd2s1
