A simple command of "info grub" will tell you all you need (or wish) to know about the grub commands. Basically the root command sets the "root" partition from which grub starts working. Any other commands without referenced partitions are relative to that root. eg

root (hd0,0)
kernel yada/yada

and

kernel (hd0,0)yada/yada
are the same and work

but

root (hd2,0)
kernel (hd0,1)yada/yada

means that grub will get its second stage files from hd2,0 but will boot the kernel from hd0,1
