Hi Eternity,

In addition to everything proposed so far: take a look at "disk geometry
issues" on the Soekris Wiki. Those may also cause problems with GRUB.

If that is the problem, just boot with Lilo or Syslinux (which is the
smallest boot loader for Linux I think, an at least the easiest to
configure).
