You need to specify the Grub's root for each path to the kernel:
menuentry "GNU/Linux, Linux 4.7.2-newbean" {
linux (hd0,1)/boot/vmlinuz-4.7.2 root=/dev/sda1 ro
}
menuentry "GNU/Linux, Linux 4.2-l-bean" {
linux (hd1,1)/boot/vmlinuz-4.2-lfs-7.8 root=/dev/sdb1 ro
If recall, that is the way to do it and not use the variable set early for
"set root="
