Re: DOC2000 and Grub

[Dzuy Nguyen <dzuy@infinity-studios.com>]

It's possible that the grub_firmware and the nftl are overlapping.  When 
run doc_loadbios,
observe the number of bytes written into DoC.  It should be the size of 
the grub_firmware.
I'd add a couple of blocks (erase size) to that as the offet in nftl_format.
