Note: I've posted this on comp.os.linux.setup as well but things are a bit
slow there.

After making some edits to my partition scheme with the latest edition of
GParted I've found that my machine
can no longer boot.
It gets as far as displaying the word GRUB but no further.
I've tried reinstalling Grub with system-rescuecd but that isn't working
either.

If I type grub-install hd0,0 --root-directory=/mnt/hdb1 I get:
> /dev/hdb1 does not have any corresponding BIOS drive

Using grub-install hd0,0 --root-directory=/mnt/hdb1/boot instead is
enough to make it probe BIOS drives properly but I get the error:
> The file /mnt/hdb1/boot/boot/grub/stage1 was not read correctly


Does someone know how to fix such problems? Or at least point me towards
some
docs that I can use to figure this out?
