info grub, Troubleshooting, Stage2 errors:
| 18 : Selected cylinder exceeds maximum supported by BIOS
| This error is returned when a read is attempted at a linear block
| address beyond the end of the BIOS translated area. This generally
| happens if your disk is larger than the BIOS can handle (512MB for
| (E)IDE disks on older machines or larger than 8GB in general).
Create a separate /boot partition somewhere near the begingining of your
hard disk.
