set and ls are your friend in rescue mode. Use ls to list the drives and their 
partitions. Use set to find out where grub thinks it should be looking for grub 
modules and grub.cfg, which is clearly wrong or it would have found them. The 
goal is to get rescue to load normal.mod, and then you can get it to execute 
grub.cfg which will load additional needed modules.
