The fat boot sector is correctly parsed by grub, so that is not the
problem.

Grub is probably reading the wrong sector when trying to mount the fat
partition.  Can you do an strace like this:

  strace -o grub.trace grub

and then invoke the command "geometry (hd0)".  This creates a longer
file grub.trace.  You can send it to me privately.
