I searched for any existing bugs matching this but I couldn't find any.

Here's what I've found.  Using a sarge iso from 2 weeks ago and an iso
dated today I've run into problems trying to boot from the new
install.  Using d-i to partition a new slave drive and then installing
grub (either from d-i or booting from floppy and using a grub shell)
results in an unbootable partition with just a "GRUB " prompt.

If you get a GRUB prompt then it did boot.

When I say I have a grub prompt I don't mean that grub is loaded. I mean after the BIOS is loaded, "GRUB " is printed to the screen and the machine locks up.
