You don't need a /boot partition. The grub.conf was perfectly valid with
/dev/hda1 = (hd0,0) being the root partition and containing the /boot
directory.

The code from MBR fails to load GRUB main program on primary master
drive. Either because it can't access the disk at all or because of disk
geometry confusion it loads and executes wrong sectors which causes the
machine to hang.

And since /dev/hdb doesn't appear in device.map, /dev/hdb was not even
known at install time.
