[Bglug] Grub

[Jon]

Just another stab in the dark.  I had a similar issue with Grub, can't
remember the error code, but was a WD hard drive and it turned out to be
the master/slave pin-out.  Can't remember if MB did not like cable
select setting when only one hard drive attached or other issue, but was
able to clear error by changing it.  Worth a try.
