sees a negative number of cylinder:

Information: The operating system thinks the geometry on
/dev/scsi/host0/bus0/target0/lun0/disc is 151963/255/63. Therefore, cylinder
1024 ends at 8032.499M.

This same problems (guessing...) is reported bu GRUB that reports:
'Error 24: Attempt to access block outside partition'
as you can see below. What possible couse do you see?
Thanks In Advance.
