Unfortunately, I was not able to find a setting for the
root device of grub. There is actually a root device field
in the UI, but this is the root device for the kernel and
not for grub. The only workaround I have found so far was 
to put the drive specification upfront the kernel and 
initrd settings like (hd0,1)/boot/vmlinuz and 
(hd0,1)/boot/initrd. 

This works, at least.
