Might I suggest (again) using grub interactively
(type "E" when the grub prompt appears).
It is a PITA, I agree, but I've found it very useful
in sorting out the sort of problem you have,
as it tells you if it can't find a partition,
and has quite a good "completion" help with TAB.
grub> root (hd0,1)
grub> kernel boot/vmlinuz-<tab>
grub> initrd boot/initrd...
etc
[Note that if you don't have a separate /boot partition
you will have to say boot/vmlinuz... (or is it /boot/vmlinuz...)]
