I don't think mapping is going to help/be needed in this case. The
problem is that the mapping would be done after the point where it
is needed, because Grub would be looking for the config file on the
wrong drive, so it would never read it. It would work if you were
using another copy of Grub to chainload to this one, and you did hte
mapping in the first version.
