Looks like pretty standard problem, I recommend using Lilo and ditching Grub, as lilo gives meaningful error messages if there is some problem in lilo.conf, where as grub will only crib at the boot time, by the time your system may have been rendered non-bootable. Anyways, either read Lilo howto-s or paste your menu.conf from /boot/grub and lilo.conf from /etc and hope someone to suggest a lilo.conf for you.
