Sounds to me like the disk setup (in the cfg) is wrong.  Wrong use of UUID or 
other pointers to the various disks.

I would be if you compared the entries, you might find the problem.   There 
was a bug waaay back in karmic where grub used the wrong uuid in the --set  
argument..

The --set  <   uuid  >    is supposed to point to the uuid of the /boot 
partition.

the root=UUID=<    uuid  >    is supposed to point to the uuid of the '/' 
partition.

If you don't have a separate /boot partition, then I would assume the --set 
and the root=UUID  would be the same.
