It think that it's your initrd that needs some attention...
Anyway, from a wheezy install:
menuentry 'Debian GNU/Linux, with Linux 3.1.0-1-686-pae' --class
debian --class gnu-linux --class gnu --class os {
insmod gzio
insmod raid
insmod mdraid1x
insmod part_msdos
insmod part_msdos
insmod ext2
set root='(mduuid/ea8a8cde873a9900f6e13b3742a475ca)'
search --no-floppy --fs-uuid --set=root
e201fc61-91dd-4657-a703-0f7802df62c7
echo 'Loading Linux 3.1.0-1-686-pae ...'
linux /boot/vmlinuz-3.1.0-1-686-pae
root=UUID=e201fc61-91dd-4657-a703-0f7802df62c7 ro
echo 'Loading initial ramdisk ...'
initrd /boot/initrd.img-3.1.0-1-686-pae
}
