Hello,

I encountered the same problem, correct root partition is not properly
detected: there's "root (hd0,6)" instead of "root (hd0,4)" (there's also
a problem of uuids, but I will fill a bug report for this /or find
already existing one/). "6" comes from, probably, Linux way of numbering
partitions (sda1, 2, 5, 6, ...), but grub ("4") does it differently 1 -
sda1, 2 - sda2, 3 - sda5, 4 - sda6, ... . sda6 is my root partition (see
below for more info) - maybe here lays the cause?

uname -a:
Linux sagittarius 2.6.27-4-generic #1 SMP Mon Sep 22 04:40:15 UTC 2008 x86_64 
GNU/Linux

System version: Ubuntu 8.10 Intrepid (Alpha 4 as fas as I remember).

Partitions (mounting points):
sda1 - Windows
sda2 - extended
sda5 - /boot
sda6 - /
sda7 - /home
sda8 - swap

See attachements for more info on partitions and uuids.
