It is slightly different but still happens.  I get either 'Read Error' or
'LBA Error' depending on whether I use stage1 or stage1_lba.

I used this install line:

install (fd0)+1 (hd0) (hd0,0)/stage2 p (hd0,0)/menu.lst

(hd0,0) is a DOS partition and (fd0) is a GRUB boot floppy made by dd'ing
stage1 and stage2 together onto a raw disk.
