The filesystem is ext2. Here are the results of grub-fstest:
# ./grub-fstest /dev/sda ls
(loop0) (loop0,6) (loop0,5) (loop0,3) (loop0,2) (loop0,1) (host)
# ./grub-fstest /dev/sda ls '(loop0,6)'
Partition loop0,6: Filesystem type ext2, Last modification time 2010-02-04 07:04:15 Thursday, UUID 84b34ca9-d870-44c2-8809-2e43c782c51e

I think that this means that grub-fstest is OK. When I boot up into the grub bootloader and I tab-complete to the appropriate directory, the grub bootloader thinks that the directory is empty:
sh:grub> linux (ata0,6)/boot/ (tab complete)
sh:grub> linux (ata0,6)/boot/ (tab complete)
sh:grub> linux (ata0,6)/boot/ (tab complete)
sh:grub> linux (ata0,6)/boot/ (tab complete)
If I "force" the filename and press enter, I get:
sh:grub> linux (ata0,6)/boot/vmlinuz-2.6.26-2-686
Error: out of disk
