lilo is a crappy bootloader and it's not able to run GNU (Hurd), you need to install Grub to do it.
Grub is able to boot GNU/Linux, GNU (Hurd), BSD, windoze and lots of systems.
Beware actual 'stable' version of Grub has an important bug waiting to be solved.
Check http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=102811&repeatmerged=yes
for more info.
I suggest you either wait untill the bug is solved or get the upstream sources from http://www.gnu.org/software/grub/
and install them yourself.

you can't just put the kernel image there, you need to install GNU (Hurd) from scratch like if it was a different distro,
see http://www.debian.org/ports/hurd/ for installing information.
