Hi,

I've just downloaded GRUB 0.5.92, and dd'd stage1 and stage2 to a floppy
as suggested in the manual, but the images seem to be wrong as they
screw the floppy up (and it isn't bootable).

Specifically:

mount /dev/fd0 /mnt/floppy
umount /mnt/floppy
dd if=stage1/stage1 of=/dev/fd0 bs=512 count=1
dd if=stage2/stage2 of=/dev/fd0 bs=512 seek=1
mount -tmsdos /dev/fd0 /mnt/floppy/
mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/fd0,
       or too many mounted file systems


I installed grub simply by doing:

tar -xvf grub-0.5.92.tar
cd grub-0.5.92
./configure
make
make install


Where am I going wrong?


Thanks in advance, 


Greg
