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,
