It crushed in place where it should load root filesystem translator. Are you sure your disk is ok ? My proposal of solving problem : 1) try running `badblocks' over Hurd partition (from Linux) 2) try creating Hurd partition with params `-O none -o hurd' These two are the most obvious. If they will both fail, we will try something more complex.
