Hmm. Can you

1. reboot into TC1
2. follow installer until IDE has been probed for and network
   configured
3. enter rescue console
4. mount the root partition or the partition containing /boot
   somewhere (muck around with /dev/discs)
5. copy /boot/grub/menu.lst to somewhere you can attach it to an
   email replying to this.

We need the menu.lst to tell what's going on. Error 25 is unrecognized
command which means that grub-installer made a booboo generating menu.lst.

Thanks
