Hi!

The proposed patch is wrong.  I have no idea how it is supposed to fix the
problem, but grub isn't supposed to perform UUID search for a partition
unless it is going to be accessed (i.e. after user selection).

I need a better description of the problem before I can figure out what causes
it.  Please provide exact error, and a copy of your grub.cfg.
