Dumb question - what is the partition type of /dev/sdb1? (You may
have posted the output of fdisk -l /dev/sdb, but if so, I missed
it.) If it is an extended partition, a swap partition, or an LVM
volume, you will not be able to mount it at all.
One other point to keep in mind - Groub starts numbering things at
0, while Linux, and fdisk start numbering things at one. So when
grub.conf is talking about hd1,1 it is talking about sdb2, not sda1.
