Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: grub


Using GRUB (version 0.97-29ubuntu45) from Intrepid I coming across a 
reproducible problem with chainloading and UUID.

I'm using a bootable CD using the stage2_eltorito from the GRUB package.
I also have a USB drive with a bootable VFAT partition.

Entering the commands below manually loads the partition on the USB
without fault:

root (hd0,1)
chainloader +1
boot

If I power cycle the computer and replace the 'root (hd0,1)' line with
'uuid=4935-c5b8' above the following is returned:

Starting up ...
Boot error

Hitting the return key continues to load the partition on the USB
without fault.

Why does GRUB respond with "Boot error" using the UUID command instead
of root?
