Please type on the rescue> prompt of grub set
and then tell us the value of prefix and root

You use only /dev/hdd on your linux but it's (hd1) in device.map
If you're BIOS directly boots from hdd then change your device.map
please, it will only be regenerated if it doestn't exist or is clearly
wrong i.e. missing devices.
Or do you have grub-legacy somehow on (hd0) sdc installed and loading
grub2 from (hd1) sdd?
