stage1_5 is useful? - grub legacy

Hi!

I have developed a new option (for grub legacy) that avoids stage1 to stage1_5 link so that only stage1 to stage2 link happens. Should I set up this option as the default option?

This avoids problems with some Windows (Vista) systems that insist in overwriting the sectors just after the MBR where stage1_5 resides.

However I want to know if having stage1_5 is useful for something or not! Because should I set this stage1 to stage2 way of setting grub as my default option in Super Grub Disk.

        Thank you very much for any advice.
