groot is not the same as root. (hd0,0) seems perfectly OK to me for groot.

Please show us the lines as generated by the installer in grub's menu.lst 
for the default entry for the installed system and the lines as you think 
they should be (or better: with which the system does boot).

This is a fairly unusual setup and the error should be easy to correct, 
especially given that grub menu lines can be corrected during the boot.
Therefore a RC severity is not correct.
