Thanks for testing!
I get the same message when using "multiboot2". In my case I expect it:
I wrote a header that _requires_ a text mode from the bootloader (the
"required" field in the flags tag is 0), so the loading fails and when
the boot script reaches "boot" there is no kernel.
set root=(hd0,9)
multiboot2 /boot/gnumach.gz
boot
Do you get that message only when using "multiboot2"? In that case,
could you please try at the grub2 prompt one line at a time? Does the
"multiboot2" line evokes any output?

I will!
Warmly,
