Confirming this bug for me too.

If I set debug=disk in grub.cfg I can see GRUB agressivly reading from
the harddisk. It especially searches hd0, where Windows Vista lives.

I removed every search command in grub.cfg, still it is searching the
HD, I think, thats because it is looking for the GRUB modules.

I had grub2 installed under Intrepid, that worked like a charm (but that
was 1.96 not 1.97). Since the update I have this annoying problem.
