So it says you don't have no /boot partition. Your partition layout
seems to indicate different. So if there really is a /boot partition
with the kernel and ramdisk image and / contains /boot just the
mountpoint, then with your grub.conf above system can't boot. Maybe it
is enough to remove the "/boot" in the kernel and initrd lines.
The "LABEL=/1" indicates that there was/is a different / labled
partition too.

Frankly, I don't know what you did and I doubt you can investigate this
your own and communicate it to find a quick solution. It may be quicker
if your start from scratch with a clean hard drive.
