I will try to install something intrepid/jaunty -64 on the same partition I 
reported the failure earlier, but I do not think this has to do with bug 
149832, as the install partition was already occupied with ext3 (and Gutsy-386).
But it could have something to do with the swapping/addition of the drives.

as far as I can remember:

starting situation: 
sda1:  WinXP (ntfs),  sda2,3,5,6,7,8,9 contains OS/2, swap partition and data 
on HPFS, Fat32 and JFS(os/2) drives
sdb1: gutsy /; sdb5: linux swap; sdb6 gutsy /home

added 1 new drive as sda, 
old sda connected as sdb, no readable partitions for WinXP on new sda, so still 
on C: (and working, but failed later due to NTFS-trouble)
old sdb connected as sdc

installed hardy 386 -alpha4 on sda1/sda6, copied settings/mail from sdc6 (old 
home)
I seem to remember after this installation Grub was able to start gutsy from 
sdc1


installed hardy 64 -alpha5 on sdc1 as / and sda6 mounted as /home
grub error 17 when starting hardy 64 from sdc1
hardy-386 from sda1 still works

In the mean time, i upgraded the hardy -386 alpha4 to intrepid -386
