Since GRASS uses GDAL for data-import, you should have a look at the
gdal-website[1] how to make HDF-data work with GDAL.
AFAIK GDAL needs to compile against the HDF-libraries in order to
support HDF.

gdalinfo --formats should give HDF4 oder HDF5 in its output.

If this is the case, you can user r.in.gdal to import the data.

Hope that helps.

If you are trying to import a Terra ASTER hdf file, use r.in.aster. This
will import and georeference the aster image.
