Did you check other files in /boot? IIRC GRUB uses (used?) a device map
file to map UUIDs or other identifiers into GRUB-specific names (which
historically looked like (hdX), but may have changed with GRUB2.

I gave up on GRUB a long time ago, and strongly recommend Extlinux.
Except that Extlinux doesn't support /boot on LVM (it supports Ext*,
FAT, iso9660, btrfs, perhaps one or two others), so my solution is:
Don't do that; I always use a separate /boot.

If you're interested I can provide detailed instructions on setting up
Extlinux, otherwise, I can't be of anymore help.
