When I follow the instructions in the GRUB manual for creating a GRUB boot disk:

dd if=/boot/grub/stage1 of=/dev/fd0 bs=512 count=1

dd if=/boot/grub/stage2 of=/dev/fd0 bs=512 seek=1

I get a geom error upon booting to the floppy.

Any tips?

Thanks to both Bruce Marshall and Johan Sch (sic) for step-by-step instructions on making a GRUB boot disk. Thanks also to all the respondents to another thread I started regarding file concatenation on a DOS/Windows platform. This is a great list.
