I don't see any previous mail from you in this bug report.  Are you sure
that it is appropriate for you to follow up to this bug, rather than
filing a fresh one?  It's not obvious from what you've said here that
it's related.

 My grub boot got corrupted because the dos compatibility mode was
 selected in fstab during install of lenny.
 
 I disabled this (c) and enabled another mode with u
 
 It started to dawn to me that my /boot partition was listed with
 
 (hd0,msdos1) and not the expected (hd0,1).

This is nothing to worry about - it's part of GRUB gaining more correct
support for strange corner cases that involve nested partition tables.
I don't think it relates to whatever your problem is.

(hd0,msdos1) was show in the grub rescue shell.
