Hi Mark,

I did try replacing the UUID stuff with direct disk specifications but 
got no joy. As it happens, I decided this morning to uninstall the rt 
kernel (the one that wouldn't load) and installed a different one 
(2.6.24-23-rt). I copied its grub entry from /boot/grub/menu.lst on the 
Intrepid partition to /boot/grub/menu.lst on my 64 Studio partition. I 
rebooted, selected the new kernel from the grub menu, and voila, it loaded.

When I installed the new kernel I also searched the repo for everything 
with 2.6.24-23-rt in its name. I installed some packages I'm sure I did 
*not* install for the previous (non-loading) kernel.

So I have a bootable rt kernel for Ubuntu 8.10. Now I have to find the 
best settings for Jack, I'm getting too many xruns.

Thanks to everyone who responded. The UUID problem was a reminder to me 
that Linux changes constantly. It gets difficult to keep up sometimes, I 
appreciate the help here.

Best,
