  That seems to be correct, if (hd0,1)/boot/grub/stage* exists. I
think these are possible:

* (hd0,1)/boot/grub/stage* don't exist,
* (hd0,1)/boot/grub/menu.lst doesn't exist,
* your menu.lst is broken,
* or, the location of your stage2 is beyond 1024 cylinders, at least
  partially.

  This is not correct. Currently, GRUB assumes that the install
command is used for stage2 but not for stage1.5. So you have to
specify the ``configuration file'', which is used for the stage2
filename in stage1.5. Here is the example:

install= (hd0,1)/boot/grub/stage1 (hd0,1) (hd0)1+16 0x2000 p (hd0,1)/boot/grub/stage2

  Okay, that has been pushed in my task queue. :-)
