Thanks! Your suggestion *almost* worked. I fiddled around a bit and had 
to add the following option:

GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX="nomodeset"

Now I wonder how I could possibly display all boot messages properly. I 
removed the "quiet" option for a start. Is there a way I can get my 
Ubuntu server to boot like, say, a FreeBSD, Gentoo or Arch machine, with 
all the stuff that happens at boot time (think: RAID arrays, services, 
etc.) neatly displayed one after another and not only flashing by for 
the fraction of a second?

Cheers,

Niki
