[Bug 807796] [NEW] boot options result in kernel panic

[skotadopsyxos]

Public bug reported:

kernel panic with default configuration after fresh install

This is a system installed on a software uefi/gpt disc, separate boot
partition, separate root partition on raid and running grub-efi

boot option
menuentry 'Ubuntu, with Linux 2.6.38-10-generic' --class ubuntu --class gnu-linux --class gnu --class os {
	recordfail
	set gfxpayload=$linux_gfx_mode
	insmod part_gpt
	insmod ext2
	set root='(/dev/sda,gpt2)'
	search --no-floppy --fs-uuid --set=root 8f740712-a691-46e5-b1ec-ac82e49685fc
	linux	/vmlinuz-2.6.38-10-generic root=UUID=3a1e8b92-6a23-4ba2-b471-5898e8a5d0b2 ro   quiet splash vt.handoff=7
	initrd	/initrd.img-2.6.38-10-generic
}

causes boot panic

commenting the insmod ext2 line seems to boot fine

lsb_release -rd
Description:    Ubuntu 11.04
Release:        11.04

grub-common:
  Installed: 1.99~rc1-13ubuntu3

note: in the attached grub.cfg I have already commented out the insmod
line
