Hi,

that was the hint that had put me on the right track. Grub was not able
to find its files due to a wrong device.map.
In my BIOS configuration the SATA-drive is selected as first boot device
but Grub uses to start counting devices with IDE drives. So i modified
my device.map from:
>>device.map:
>>
>>(fd0) /dev/fd0
>>(hd0) /dev/hda
>>(hd1) /dev/sda
to:
device.map:
(fd0) /dev/fd0
(hd0) /dev/sda
(hd1) /dev/hda
And after reinstalling grub everything works fine again.
Thanks for your help,
Andre
