Hello!

1) docs/menu.lst lacks an example how to use the "color" keyword.
"color= 0x17 0x30" could be a reasonable example

2) There is no example on using stage1_5. It would be good to put
into docs/menu.lst something like:

# For installing GRUB into the hard disk                                        
title= Install GRUB into the hard disk (with ext2fs stage)                      
root= (hd0,4)                                                                   
install= /boot/grub/stage1 (hd0) /boot/grub/e2fs_stage1_5 0x2000

Note that the example above doesn't work (for me), and I have yet to find
out why.

3) docs/errors.html lists wrong codes for stage1_5. For example, code 17
is said to be "Invalid device requested", but it is ERR_FSYS_MOUNT, i.e.
"Cannot mount selected partition"

4) The "p" option for install doesn't write install partition anymore, so
I have to hardcode it to the path:

install= /boot/grub/stage1 (hd0) /boot/grub/stage2 0x8000 p
(hd0,4)/boot/grub/menu.lst

However, docs/grub.texi still says that "p" means writing
install_partition into stage2. Is it a bug or a non-documented feature?
