The trivial patch from before is not enough. There must have been residue on 
the drive. When I re-installed after zeroing the beginning of the drive, grub 
doesn't display anything at bootup (not even the Stage 1.5 text message). 
Perhaps the 2.6 ub kernel driver is the cause of the broken-ness. (?)

Summary:  patch to support ub* device names in grub-install

Original Submission:  This is a simple patch so that grub-install can install 
onto devices with names like /dev/ub[a-z] (this looks as if it's going to be 
the normal name for usb devices.)

Thanks,
Jeff
