I just did a fresh install of natty (amd64). Grub works normally EXCEPT when I try to manually edit the boot settings - then after pressing the boot key it dies with "alloc magic is broken at 0x3fdb7230" most of the time (not always, sometimes it works).

I did TWO full test runs of memtest86+ and the memory of the machine is OK.

I really believe that this is a grub bug now that two people have reported it.
