We had these problems with VMware ESX and a JeOS/Ubuntu Server installation. Everything worked fine but after some kernel update, the new initramfs was written beyond the 1024th cylinder and grub failed (and this was inside a VM, so there's no BIOS update which could fix this; shame on you VMware!). After migrating all VMs to separate 100MB -/boot-partitions, everything works fine now.
