Oh, I'm sorry if I led you to beleive that I was recomending having
/boot/boot/...
Perhaps it's not clear from the docs, but what you are saying with that
install line is that you want to use the file /boot/grub/stage1 which
lives on the (grub) root partition. That is, you are asking grub to
read (hd0,0)/boot/grub/stage1, not (hd0,6)/boot/grub/stage1 (or
whatever your linux root partition is)
The proper line reads:
install /grub/stage1 d (hd0) /grub/stage2 p
setup is just a wrapper arround embed and install. Because that line
is not something you will come up with without going back to the
documentation is that I asked to have another parameter to specify
this. In other words, KISS.
Sorry about the confusion,
Marcelo
