Bug#318799: does not set up a proper grub when installing in hdb MBR

[Noel Torres <envite@telefonica.net>]

Package: installation
Severity: grave

I installed normally from Sarge DVD 1 in my brand-new hard disk hdb.
Everything seemed OK, and I partitioned my new disk (boot, swap, root,
home and all the others) and selected to install grub in MBR of hdb.

During rebooting, I set up my BIOS to boot from hdb. The computer
booted, and grub showed me a menu with the two new kernel entries
(normal and recover mode) and all my old kernels from hda.

I selected to boot the new kernel, and grub said me that it can not
execute the second instruction "kernel" because it can not find the
file.

I keystroked e-d-b and my new system booted OK. Simply deleting the
first line "root (hd1,0)" worked.
