Sorry to bother you again, but I am having more problems with grub.

I am getting the error "LBA error" from stage1_lba when it is booted from
my LBA drive. I used
        root= (hd1,0)
        install= /boot/grub/stage1_lba (hd1) /boot/grub/stage2 0x8000 p
from the shell to install.

>From stage1_lba.S I can clearly see that the error that I got refers to a
failed LBA probe. However, hd1 is set up as LBA. It is a 2.4Gb hard drive. 
Linux and stage2 read the drive ok, but I'm not sure if stage2 uses LBA.
I've looked through the docs, but I can't find any solution in them.

PS: try color= 0x1e 0x70
    kinda reminds me of the borland IDEs :)

Off-topic somewhat:
Also, does anyone know what the byte at 0x80:0x87 does? I fiddle with
it with assembly at the beginning of stage1 and it gives me color (my
video card is confused). Don't ask where I found this :) -- it's a long
story. Linux gives me color anyways without it, though. I just use it so
my nice colored menu is actually colored. :)
