Just to make it clear: I used no boot partition, that means grub-stuff
and kernels where on /dev/hda7 which is my root partition currently.
After I changed some of my other partitions, I prepared a 150 MB boot
partition on /dev/hda3 today, made my system use it and reinstalled grub
from feisty which is 0.97-20ubuntu5 by now (doing grub-install /dev/hda
too). So boot is now entirely below 8GB as suggested by
http://www.gnu.org/software/grub/manual/html_node/Stage2-errors.html
Will see if it happens again ...
Appending my new partition table:
sudo fdisk -l
