Have you verified the checksum (probably md5sum) of the current install
media, either the ISO (if used directly) or the media created from the ISO?

Does it read similar to this: setup --stage2=/boot/grub/stage2 --force-lba (hd0,1) (hd0,1)
Or maybe you have a capatilization problem? HD vs. hd or . vs. ,

there is an corrupted version of stage 1 or stage2 which may not be read by BIOS calls, as BIOS transulated geomentry which has been changed by the user or disk may have been moved etc…

as part of resolution try installing grub

grub-install /dev/sda

grub>root(hd0)
grub>setup(hd0)
grub>boot
