OK!  As I suspected, /dev/sda1 is your /boot.  Assuming you have the 
partition mounted as above (It looks like it's mounted at /sda1; if not, 
change the path as needed.):

cd /sda1/grub
cat grub.conf

This should get you where you need to be because, as people tend to 
forget sometimes, /etc/grub.conf is simply a link to 
/boot/grub/grub.conf and doesn't exist unless the system you're running 
uses grub.
