rootnoverify (hd1)
For chaining to the MBR certainly use (hd1); for chaining to a boot sector on
a partition the (hd1,0) is correct, as grub isn't in the MBR in that case.
OP mentioned the boot was written to /dev/sda1, not the MBR on /dev/sda.
I quote from the original question:
"There was not an option to omit installing the boot loader, I let it
install it on sdb."
