Hi GRUB hackers.
Yersterday (2000-04-09) I have reported a bug concerning the type
'signed char' for the ethernet address in 'struct nic'. I did a fix
in at home to cast the type to unsigned in the cs89x0.c file.
But on the etherboot mailing list, Ken Yap reports the error and does
following fix (for version 4.5.8):

This will appear in the next release, but in case you are using the
Crystal Semi driver...
