Using a grub boot floppy, at the grub> prompt, I've typed "setup (hd0)", which then says it's checking for stage1 and stage2, and a conf file, and then it reports success. However, on reboot, I just get a blank screen with a dash in the top left corner, just like I would sometimes get back in the old days of MS-DOS if the boot sector was corrupt and the system started booting and then hung early in the process.
I don't know what happened, but here is a short guide for manual installation:
In GNU/Hurd or GNU/Linux:
# mkdir /boot/grub # cp /usr/lib/grub/i386-pc/* /boot/grub # vi /boot/grub/menu.lst
In Grub shell:
(grub) root (hd0,0) # The partition with /boot/grub (grub) setup (hd0) # The whole disk
