Used ./grub-mkrescue, but it:
a) seems not to create a filesystem on the disk image (how can i put
grub.cfg on the disk?)
b) creates 1440k floppy images by default
c) In the wiki method, there was the possibility of defining the root
device(fd0 in the guide), in the final installation i might need to
use (fd1) (bios drive 01h or "B:"), is this supported?

so for b i just modified the grub-mkrescue say count=63 in the dd
command and it creates images of the appropriate size.

the image works fine if used in qemu just with "qemu -fda image.img
-boot a", but if it is emulated truly with ROMOS using qemu option
-option-rom it halts to
"GRUB Loading kernel.......
" (eq there's a newline after "kernel....")
