On this point, maybe it is a good idea to create a generic howto for grub as i found the installation quite confusing at first - mainly due to problems with using very old versions.
For linux users i'd suggest creating a seperate ext2 /boot partition when installing and then placing stage1, stage2, menu.lst, etc into /boot/grub. Then create a bootdisk with grub 5.93.1 (IIRC) by dd if=image of=/dev/fd0 count=512 Then boot from this disk and type: roughly... root (fd0) install /grub/stage1 d (hd0) /grub/stage2 p /grub/menu.lst root (hd0) chainloader +1 boot Is there already an "image" available? (count=512, stage1, seek=1, stage2) Maybe it would be a good idea to place this on the hurd page, and remove all other old versions...
