I can confirm there are all entries with "root UUID" instead of "uuid UUID" on Jaunty, but only with the first install of grub-pc. If you've installed grub-pc before, you have to delete the files "core.img" and "grub.cfg" from /boot/grub to check this out. If not, you will be neither asked for chainloading nor will be created an entry in menu.lst.
I think it is very important to update also the Jaunty package because if you want a new installation of Karmic from a live cd-partition [1]. It seems that GRUB Legacy can't read out initrd.lz (steps I took > [2]), therefore you first need to install GRUB 2. By the way, the existing entries are replaced from "Ubuntu 9.04" to "Debian GNU/Linux".
