Dual boot on second HD brings grub minimal shell

Hi,

 

My hackintosh run SnowLeopard, that is installed (twice) on the first hard disk, with GUID table. I have a second hard disk, with MBR partitions, and a mix of hfs+ and ext3/ext4 partitions.

 

I can install Linux on this disk, and install grub on the root partition (so /dev/sdb2 or /dev/sdb3), but I can't boot it (I get a grub minimal shell). I'm pretty sure it has worked at least once, but some update broke that (it also probably broke booting into Leopard, and only SL restored (CCC) boots.

 

Looks as if Chameleon RC3 finds and boots grub, but grub then can't find it's boot partitions... Does grub "see" the hfs+ partitions?  Any hint is welcome.
