File this in bugzilla.  In the bug, please include:

a) what version of the OS you're using
b) which grub package you've installed
c) what you're trying to accomplish with this abnormal /BOOT setup

Along with this info, please attach:

a) /proc/partitions
b) grub.conf
c) device.map
d) the output of "ls -lR /BOOT"

I suspect this is user error, but I'll be happy to have a look at it
once you've filed the bug with this information.
