Package: grub Version: 0.95+cvs20040624-14
Platform: amd64 (gcc-3.4)
Hi folks,
If I try to install grub as described on
http://www.gnu.org/software/grub/manual/grub.html#Installing%20GRUB%20natively
on an USB memory stick, then grub dies with a core dump.
# sfdisk -l /dev/sdd

(install-grub doesn't work either. It doesn't print an error message, but the boot sector is not touched.)
