Summary: Grub can't recognize GNU/HURD ext2fs logical partitions
Original Submission: When trying to mount a logical GNU/HURD partition (created by
mke2fs -o hurd /dev/hda7 with GNU/Linux), I have error no 17: Cannot mount selected
partition. When changing partition type to Linux (0x82), I manage to boot with that
logical partition. This does not happen when using a primary partition.

Jeroen is right: GNU ext2fs is part of the Hurd but it's suposed to act on 0x82
partitions.
On the other hand, I don't see why GRUB should fail if the partition type is
incorrect, or even check the partition type at all. What really matters here is that
if a sane ext2 filesystem is present, then GRUB should be able to read it no matter
what the partition type is.

I think this bug can be closed, you always have to set the partition type to Linux
(0x82) if it's an ext2 partition, the Hurd type (0x63) should not be used for such an
partition.
