I did comment out - start_elf (MOD_ROOT_FS); - from wortel/wortel.c to 
make the os propely working.
I installed - deva ia32-kernel  laden  physmem  sigma0  startup  task  
wortel - stripped in /l4/boot like it's written in file README.
I use this updatehurd.sh script as root to modify the 
pistachio-ia32-0.4-demodisk.bin downloaded from l4ka.
Also, i changed the file boot/grub/menu.lst in 
pistachio-ia32-0.4-demodisk.bin and added these lines:

title The GNU Hurd on L4
kernel /boot/laden
module /boot/ia32-kernel
module /boot/sigma0
module /boot/wortel -D -o serial,uart1,speed=9600
module /boot/physmem
module /boot/task
module /boot/deva
module /boot/deva
module /boot/deva

then for boot the os i type

qemu -dummy-net -serial stdio -fda pistachio-ia32-0.4-demodisk.bin -boot a

work at least for me
