My understanding of GRUB is that it uses a menu.lst file in /boot/grub
to supply the boot options. That is certainly what my SuSE
installation does. I'm not sure what role /etc/grub.conf plays, but it
is not the right place to put new boot options.
Are you also sure that (hd0,1) is the right partition?
Whatever is going on, it is to do with GRUB failing to find the named file.
It currently has nothing to do with the way that RedBoot was built,
which looks OK to me.
I would strongly suggest experimenting with GRUB booting from a floppy
disk.
