Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: grub

Ubuntu 9.04, fully updated.  Sempron 2400+, 2GB ram, ATI 9200SE graphics
card (works well).

On starting up the system ran grub with no problems, then moved on to starting 
ubuntu on UUID7a49a256-2471-45cc-9933-78b8a5bbcfe9, but then froze.  This 
happened to me only occasionally, but a post in ubuntuforums 
http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=7571367#post7571367
shows it has happened to at least one other.  I overcame the problem, entirely 
by chance, by changing the UUID reference in the ubuntu grub to the older
root              (hd0,1)
system and the problem has now gone away and not returned, both for me and, I 
hope, heller_barde.

I have two ide disks not sata and wonder if this has any bearing on the
problem.  I realise there are good reasons for usingthe UUID in grub,
(and fstab) but wonder if this problem has been seen before
