Someone please help! Trying to make a 8M flash card bootable using grub by got this error.

First, I mkfs the flashcard.

[EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]# mkfs /dev/sda1 -t ext3

Second, I mounted /dev/sda1 to /mnt/flash
[EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]# mount | grep sda
/dev/sda1 on /mnt/flash type ext3 (rw)
[EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]# 

Third, I copied over the stage files
[EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]# mkdir /mnt/flash/grub
[EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]# cp /boot/grub/stage* /boot/grub/e2fs_stage1_5 
/mnt/flash/grub/
[EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]# 

Fourth, I install grub, but I got stuck at "root(hd0,0)". Can anyone help ?
grub> device (hd0) /dev/sda

grub> root (hd0,0)
 Filesystem type unknown, partition type 0x1

grub> geometry (hd0)
drive 0x80: C/H/S = 246/2/32, The number of sectors = 15744, /dev/sda
   Partition num: 0,  Filesystem type unknown, partition type 0x1
