Hi again,

Ok, after booting from PXE and mounting onboard flash /dev/hda1 on /mnt, 
tar zvf pyramid-1.0b1.tar into /:

chroot /mnt
... and then create the file /sbin/grup-setup.sh with the same stuff I've 
pasted.

Create also /boot/grub/grub-script with:

root (hd0,0)
setup (hd0)
quit

Then, run again /sbin/grub-setup.sh. It's the current method on the last 
beta and it worked for me. I think it should work for you too.
