A well know bug: Older releases of GRUB (including our own grub version on os.inf.tu-dresden.de) have problems when seeking back a file which comes from tftp. Bugfix: Upgrade to the latest GRUB release in CVS. Workaround: Strip your kernel image (rmgr): strip rmgr. When stripping your image, GRUB doesn't have to seek back the image because there are no other sections than code and data.
