Hmm, this is the most suspicious part of your message. First of all, hd1 can't be /dev/sde3 - it would have to be /dev/sde. Thus (hd1,0) is /dev/sde1. Second, the device map is used by the grub installer, but not by grub itself. It uses the actual BIOS boot order - hd0 is the first hard disk, hd1 is the *SECOND* hard disk. So if you boot grub with this configuration, it will try to load an operating system from a different hard drive!
