This is because the HDIO_GETGEO ioctl is limited to 65535 cylinders (i.e. ~1TB), and for bigger values Linux just returns 65535. I'm not sure where the fix should be done: should the kernel error out when the cylinders don't fit, or should grub recognize 65535 as a bogus value and compute a fake geometry by itself? Or both? Note: there is another bug in bochs's bios which prevents from testing with bochs or qemu the patch is available on the bochs list, I'll probably file a bug against the bochs package too.
