Been a while since I mucked around with grub, can't you try
grub>find (hd0,0)/boot/grub/Stage1 ? That might have just been me
experimenting at the time, though. What about specifying
$find /boot/boot/grub/Stage1 from the grub prompt. I also assume that
caps count but am not sure. What does $ls -l /boot/boot/grub show? Are
you doing this with the drive mounted? I think that since the how-to
docs I have seen recommend booting off of the grub-boot floppy that
it thinks it is not mounted.
Just throwing out ideas in case you were lacking any :) Hope it helps.
