I just checked my /etc/grub.conf, and looks basically the same as yours
above, and mine works, so I may be way off. I assume you have doubled
checked everything, that it is supposed to be hda9 in OS speak. Have
you tried to boot with the rescue system, mount hda9, chroot, then
install grub again via the grub command line? It would be basically
grub, then root (hd0,8), then setup (hd0), which should find everything
and install it, the quit to leave grub, exit to leave the chroot, then
shutdown -r now to reboot and check. HTH.
