After updating Grub to version 0.97-1, "grub-install /dev/hda" failed

The file /boot/grub/stage1 not read correctly.

The following log is left in /tmp:

Running grub manually gives the same "Error 21" when typing "root (hd0,2)",
for instance.

FWIW, this proplem seems only to be triggered under a 2.4 kernel.
I could reproduce it in a virtual machine under Qemu with the Debian-shipped
kernel 2.4.27; but when I now booted into a self-compiled kernel 2.6.14,
"grub-install" worked fine.
