I don't know specifically what your problem may be, but I tried updating grub legacy to grub2 on a running lenny install, and was left with a system that would not boot.

I'm uncertain from your post if you are trying to use grub legacy or grub2, but there is/was a clear warning that grub2 is a work in progress, and that breakage should be expected. I have stayed with grub legacy and have not had any problems at all. I'm not sure what possible advantage grub2 might offer over grub legacy anyway. I've just stayed with what works for me. :)

Hopefully someone else can offer you more advice on how to get grub2(?) to work.

Best regards.
