What is there in a number?

May one ask what this Debian GNU/Hurd 0.2 is?  Or are you really
talking about GNU 0.2?  Debian GNU/Hurd 0.2 does not exist, but there
exists an release of GNU made in 1997 called GNU 0.2.  If you are
using this release then you should upgrade at once.

The instruction in the GRUB info pages for what commands to use to
boot GNU/Hurd are wrong by the way.  See Neal's installation guide for
the correct commands:

I think the reason why he can't find it is because he might be using
GNU 0.2.
