Have you made your EFI image with grub-mkimage?

Once that's done tar up your GRUB directory and extract it to /efi/grub
in Mac OS.  I have rEFIt installed as well so I can select EFI GRUB
among other boot options (like legacy BIOS emulation mode and Mac OS).

blee@supra /mnt/macos/efi $ ls
grub  rEFIt License.rtf  rEFIt ReadMe.rtf  refit  tools
blee@supra /mnt/macos/efi $ ls grub/grub.efi grub/grub.cfg
grub/grub.cfg  grub/grub.efi
