The 'rootnoverify' means for the system to "Set GRUB's root device
without mounting it". This is used when the OS being loaded is outside
the area of the disk that GRUB can read, but setting the correct 'root'
device is still desired.

The "chainloader +1" means for GRUB to load the first sector of the
current partition as the boot loader.

Hope this helps.
