Disk partition

I can manage /etc/fstab
However, I am wondering about the /etc/boot/grub.cfg

How can I change the  msdos16 (/boot)?
Actually e245f2fc-ef1e-4811-88a2-e64be3a010cb would be OK (UUID)


       set root='hd0,msdos16'
        if [ x$feature_platform_search_hint = xy ]; then
          search --no-floppy --fs-uuid --set=root --hint-bios=hd0,msdos16 --hint-efi=hd0,msdos16 --hint-baremetal=ahci0,msdos16 --hint='hd0,msdos16'  e245f2fc-ef1e-4811-88a2-e64be3a010cb
        else
          search --no-floppy --fs-uuid --set=root e245f2fc-ef1e-4811-88a2-e64be3a010cb
        fi
