Thanks for your report. Clearly this is due to a bug in the command
"setup". What's wrong here is "(hd0)1+0", which means that GRUB fails
in obtaining the correct size of "/boot/grub/e2fs_stage1_5". I'll
investigate it soon.
If you want to install GRUB as soon as possible, please try:
grub> root (hd1,1)
grub> embed /boot/grub/e2fs_stage1_5 (hd0)
grub> install /boot/grub/stage1 d (hd0) (hd0)1+20 p /boot/grub/stage2
