Title:
  grub finishes system freezes at "starting up"

Status in grub package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  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
