I'm also seeing this error message but in different conditions: on a grub-pc installed in a USB-device where i with a menuentry i want to boot an iso.
Strange is that this happens on ainstallation on a 150GB USB-HD but not
on 20GB USB-HD !
Choosing the last menu entry, works on the tiny HD but not with
the big one!!
There throws the message:
error: you need to load the kernel first
other message also seen is
error: out of disk
20GB USB-HD installation: All grub entries Work fine
