Please add an entry to /etc/grub.d/40_custom by using a modified 9.04
/boot/grub/grub.cfg entry.

Change:
menuentry "Ubuntu 9.04, kernel 2.6.28-15-generic (on /dev/sda6)" {
        insmod ext2
        set root=(hd0,6)
        search --no-floppy --fs-uuid --set 7f69072f-cea2-4ec3-bde9-81dd16744034
        linux /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.28-15-generic
root=UUID=7f69072f-cea2-4ec3-bde9-81dd16744034 ro quiet splash
        initrd /boot/initrd.img-2.6.28-15-generic
}

To:
menuentry "Ubuntu 9.04 (from 40_custom)" {
        insmod ext2
        set root=(hd0,5)
        search --no-floppy --fs-uuid --set 9bdeb391-8fd9-48b1-9316-c4a00b7fa7a2
        linux /vmlinuz-2.6.28-15-generic
root=UUID=7f69072f-cea2-4ec3-bde9-81dd16744034 ro quiet splash
        initrd /initrd.img-2.6.28-15-generic
}

Then run update-grub and reboot. You should be able to choose
