That will be relative to the partition
hd2,1 = /boot  =   /boot/grub/splash.xpm.gz

You can use the install command from grub to install the loader on
the HD and dispense with the floppy

i.e. from the grub command line
install= (hd0,2)/boot/grub/stage1 (hd1) (hd1,a)/boot/grub/stage2 0x8000 p
/grubdir/configfile
