As a possible workaround/solution: try lilo instead of grub. No need to re-install the system for that. Just boot into the installed system via the install CD (not from the initial boot menu but after you selected "install system" when you come to the part where you can choose "fresh install", "update" or "other" - go for "other" ad you should find it - that's out of my head, hope i got it right).
