[haiku] trouble making raw image bootable

I've installed Haiku from the raw image a couple of times successfully,
but this time I followed the same steps and it failed (build 30545).
This is what I do:

1) download the raw image and unzip
2) from Linux, on the target machine: 
   dd if=haiku-alpha.image of=/dev/sdc2
3) boot Zeta on the target machine and verify sdc2 is visible as /Haiku
4) from terminal, makebootable /Haiku

I get a message saying: "Cannot find the BIOS drive id
for: /dev/disk/scsi/1/0/0/0_1", although it also says that it was
successfully made bootable.

When I boot that partition from GRUB, I get "Error loading OS; press any
key to reboot."

What have I done wrong?
