I was having a similar problem.  I made use of GRUB's tab completion, and
found that it was having trouble reading the ext2 fs that I had installed
the HURD on, since it displayed the directory names, etc. with extended
ascii characters appended to them.

For my second attempt, I took Neal's advice and made the fs with 

mke2fs -O none -o hurd /dev/hdb1

and then all was well with GRUB.  I did have to gunzip gnumach and
serverboot to get everything working.  Maybe this will work for you, too.
I guess it is a GRUB issue and not one of the HURD.

Thanks,
Richard
