GRUB has a strange methodology (well, strange to me given that I'm one of a
handful of neo-luddites still using LILO) for determining disks. It's got
root as hd2,0 which means (and I may be mistaken) the 2nd disk, first
partition.. which makes sense in accordance with /dev/sdb but since GRUB
sees 0 as a value and not a null, maybe change it to 1,0 ? I fear I'm just
going to add to the confusing at this point and apologize for not being able
to help offhand.

Ok I tried changing it to /dev/sdb, it was /dev/sda, but that didn't do it
so I guess I need some help.
