I'll just add my voice too and thank the authors for getting me out of a hole.

My experience with this bug involved trying to get Fedora Core 3 as a dual boot onto a Dell Latitude D400 laptop already with Win XP and Fedora Core 2 on it (which were previously working fine together.)

Chose the upgrade option from the Core 3 installer (to overwrite Core 2), it did the biz and then, on reboot, gave me that b@stard 'Grub Loading stage2..' error.

I found that the 'Recovery' section of the article didn't work for me, but reinstalling Core 3 as a fresh install over Core 2 using the 'linux hda=cccc,hh,ss' boot option worked a dream - I really wasn't expecting it to.

So cheers again on an excellent article.
