I upgraded my workstation from Ubuntu 9.04 to 9.10. I got the alert dev disk by-uuid does not exist dropping to a shell error. The fix was to use the busybox shell to mount /dev/sda1 (in the case of my system) on /foo and then "chroot /foo /bin/bash". I then updated:
1. /etc/fstab
Replace "UUID=f3920f76-f982-47b0-b2e7-8d6536482b8f" with "dev/sda1"
2. /boot/grub/menu.lst
Replace the UUID with the device as above. I also took out "quiet splash".
I was then able to reboot.
