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.

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.
