[Bug 442679] Re: Ubuntu 9.10 Beta doesn't boot from usb-attached hard drive, exits to busybox console

I've got some interesting news.

I installed Ubuntu 9.04 and then I did a full upgrade to 9.10
development branch. So now I have grub1 instead of grub2 for
bootstrapping. Then on menu.lst I have references to two different
kernels:

2.6.31-11-generic
2.6.28-11-generic

Well, it happens that if I try to boot with the 2.6.31 the system waits
with the message following message:

"Boot from (hd0,0) ext3 f795cdf6-25af-4d66-bb0d-988d9ec1d656
Starting up..."

And then after a few seconds it exits again to busybox.

However, booting with the 2.6.28 kernel is a success, system starts and
everything works as expected.

So now I'm considering this as a kernel bug instead of a grub2 bug!!
