I had the same problem with the 2.6.30 kernel. It seems to me that this kernel has a problem recognising UUID designations: booting into the previous 2.6.29 worked fine. I then edited the linux command line from within the grub shell at boot time, replacing root=UUID=........ to a straightforward root=/dev/hdax, which also worked fine. I then reran update-grub which replaced the UUID entries within grub.cfg with /dev/hdax and since then I have no problems.
