Grub loads a single partition for it's menu.lst so if you linked it to another partition, then I can see grub freaking out.

You can basically set the "boot partition" and then the config file within that partition, usint --boot-drive and --config-file respectively. You specify config-file with / starting at the root of that partition. I don't know what filesystems grub is able to read. You may or may not be able to put it in a FAT partition. Hope this helps get you started. Von Fugal
