That's nonsense.
Should you get any error when booting from a freshly-new created "/boot"
partition, it must be different than the one you are getting right now.
Are you saying you get the same "blackout" error? :-?
Moreover... if you format the /boot partition with ext2/ext3, you can
even try GRUB legacy.

At least you can report the bug, so others avoid the same problem :-)
