Either this is not complete, or it is not complete for extents. grub-pc (1.96-20080724-12ubuntu1) saw my ext4 partition and was able to "ls" it, but it said that my initrd image was invalid (or corrupt) and it couldn't read the grub.cfg file either. Actually, it gave a parser error about the grub.cfg file and showed a line of HTML as the error. It clearly read the wrong file or block in both cases.

After creating a new ext3 /boot partition and copying the old /boot files there (and rerunning grub-install), I was able to boot.
