I belive you can specify it with the "root" option, my
/boot/grub/menu.lst file looks like:
timeout= 10
title= Linux 2.0.33
root= (hd0,0)
kernel= /boot/vmlinuz-2.0.33
title= Linux 2.1.76
root= (hd0,0)
kernel= /boot/vmlinuz-2.1.76
title= Linux 2.0.30
root= (hd0,0)
kernel= /boot/vmlinuz-2.0.30
title= Win95
root= (hd0,2)
chainloader= +1

Not sure about remapping drives, if lilo does it in a chainloader, it
might be possible to have grub invoke that chainloader.
I do have a patch to do drive hiding, but I plan on leaving it out of
my next release.
