Not stupid at all.
Outside of the grub shell:
root at medulla ~]# echo $SHELL
/bin/bash
Inside of the grub shell:
root at medulla ~]# grub
Probing devices to guess BIOS drives. This may take a long time.
GNU GRUB version 0.97 (640K lower / 3072K upper memory)
[ Minimal BASH-like line editing is supported. For the first word, TAB
lists possible command completions. Anywhere else TAB lists the possible
completions of a device/filename.]
grub> echo $SHELL
echo $SHELL
Error 27: Unrecognized command
grub> quit
quit
[root at medulla ~]#
Also, the commandline works properly outside of grub.
