I had a grub problem where I had compiled and installed everything from a 
faster computer to be booted on an older processor.  I would find out grub 
compiled for Pentium III code would not work on the orignial Pentium.

Another case like this I had was never bothering to power down the
computer after changing head/track/sector counts and rebooting.  I guess
the bios only checks this during a cold boot, not during a warm boot.
