I would take a look at the script it may build into the initramfs, you
could take the one you have and unpack it and see what's inside, if you
don't seem to find it there then I'm not sure.

When reread your original post, you said it was before initrd, which
then should rule out the initramfs file.

Have you looked at the scripts in /etc/grub.d ? those are used to make
the entries in the grub menu.
