It would be my guess that your /boot partition falls past the 1024
cylinder limit. You can determine this by doing an fdisk on the drive
and find out what the last cylinder of current/first cylinder of new
partition falls on. Once you have determined this, try to adjust the
existing partition to fall a few cylinders short of 1024. This should
fix your problem. I had a drive that did the same thing because it had
2048 cylinders on a 20GB drive. 50-50 drops you right on 1024.
Hope this helps
