grub-install: File stage2 is not read properly



Good day.

How I can install grub in MBR on the disk where to I've copied a
warking OS if

grub-install /dev/sda

says:

File stage2 is not read properly

- or something like that. And it is not get installed into MBR.

What I did is:

copied all the files to root on an empty partition

did copy /dev to it from the rescue CD of kUbuntu (I did not have
Debian CD at the moment though I was copying Debian 4r6)

did chroot to that dir and ran the grub-install - above command. I did
that many times before - no problems.

Thank You for Your time.
