The problem is actually more general than that.  GRUB is not reading my
geometry correctly.  Here is what GRUB sees:

>geometry (hd0)
drive 0x80: C/H/S 1022/240/63, sectors=160086528, LBA
Partition 0 -- fat - 0xb
.
.

>geometry (hd1)
drive 0x81: C/H/S 831/240/63, sectors=12594960, LBA (Secondary Master)
Partition 0 -- fat - 0xb
.
.

These should be C/H/S 1024/240/63 and 833/240/63.
