grub fails



I have a fairly new PC with the following hardware:

Host bridge: Intel Corp. 82865G/PE/P DRAM Controller/Host-Hub Interface (rev 02)
VGA compatible controller: Intel Corp. 82865G Integrated Graphics Device (rev 02)
USB Controller: Intel Corp. 82801EB/ER (ICH5/ICH5R) USB UHCI #1 (rev 02)
USB Controller: Intel Corp. 82801EB/ER (ICH5/ICH5R) USB UHCI #2 (rev 02)
USB Controller: Intel Corp. 82801EB/ER (ICH5/ICH5R) USB UHCI #3 (rev 02)
USB Controller: Intel Corp. 82801EB/ER (ICH5/ICH5R) USB UHCI #4 (rev 02)
USB Controller: Intel Corp. 82801EB/ER (ICH5/ICH5R) USB2 EHCI Controller (rev 02)
PCI bridge: Intel Corp. 82801BA/CA/DB/EB/ER Hub interface to PCI Bridge (rev c2)
ISA bridge: Intel Corp. 82801EB/ER (ICH5/ICH5R) LPC Bridge (rev 02)
IDE interface: Intel Corp. 82801EB/ER (ICH5/ICH5R) Ultra ATA 100 Storage Controller (rev 02)
IDE interface: Intel Corp. 82801EB (ICH5) Serial ATA 150 Storage Controller (rev 02)
SMBus: Intel Corp. 82801EB/ER (ICH5/ICH5R) SMBus Controller (rev 02)
Multimedia audio controller: Intel Corp. 82801EB/ER (ICH5/ICH5R) AC'97 Audio Controller (rev 02)
Ethernet controller: Intel Corp. 82562EZ 10/100 Ethernet Controller (rev 01)

And a 80Gib Maxtor 6Y080L0, ATA DISK drive.

I can not get grub to work on this setup.  Installing grub does not
produce any error messages but when I boot, grub hangs with one of the
messages like "Loading stage1.5" on the screen.

Lilo works on the system.

I have installed grub on many machines in the past - servers and
pc's.  This is the first one I had no success with.

Does anyone know about a possible incompatibility between grub and
this hardware?

Johann
