For those of you encountering this with VirtualBox, moving the system
drive(s) to a virtual IDE controller instead of a virtual SATA
controller fixes it.

I had the same issue after installing 10.04 to two virtual SATA drives
(1 sys + 1 swap), I then tried an expert install using LILO instead of
GRUB, but the same problem appeared. I then moved the two virtual drives
from the virtual SATA controller to the virtual IDE controller, and it
booted nicely.
