Of course, it's possible that a buggy device

It is not a gnumach issue. It is fixed in the latest hurd.

Hello,
I uploaded a GNU Mach package gnumach-lite{-dev} with only ide, com and
floppy driver enabled. This should work on all IDE systems.
This is useful for people who suspect that GNU Mach is unstable because of
hardware problems and when GNU Mach doesn't boot because of SCSI auto
detection.
I know this is fixed in the latest GnuMach, but I have already
experienced the swap-partition clobbering and wondered how to go about
resetting a Linux swap partition.
Do I need to delete the partition and re-create it in cfdisk? Or can
I run a mkfs sort of utility to write the proper signatures
