GRUB isn't supposed to have a stable ABI. Never use an old core.img with a new grub-setup, or for that matter, any combination of core.img, *.lst,*.mod and grub-setup where all of them aren't the same version.It is better to just use grub-install to avoid mistakes. Please, retry withgrub-install "(hd0)" and report if your problem is still present.
Ok, I tried it again with grub-install and the problem is still there, grub-setup fails the same way.For testing purposes I extracted "grub-setup" from grub-pc_1.96 +20080203-1_i386.deb and used this one instead of the one in grub2_1.96+20080209-1_i386.deb (I copied it to /usr/sbin). grub-install finished without any problems, so I think the problem is in grub-setup itself.
So grub2_1.96+20080209-1_i386.deb+grub-setup from grub-pc_1.96 +20080203-1_i386.deb works.
