I used grub-legacy long ago, and I think I never used it with a /boot partition.
But I did use grub2 with a seperate /boot partition. It works fine with just /grub instead of /boot/grub

Please don't, please try grub2 :)
If you call grub-install then the *.img and *.mod files get copied to /boot/grub/ which it needs.
You can delete /boot/boot and reboot.
It will work fine.
