I notice you have two 'root' lines in above entry.
I'm guessing you might try removing the first one.
from /boot/grub/device.map :
(hd0) /dev/sda
from /etc/fstab :
# /dev/sda1
UUID=9ff18eb0-4c84-41d3-bf5e-0c6f4b9c3c7d / ext3
relatime,errors=remount-ro 0 1
Otherwise, I would suggest going back to the old-style boot
logic, at least for verification purposes.
/boot/grub/menu.lst:
root (hd0,0)
/etc/fstab:
/dev/sda1 / ext3 relatime,errors=remount-ro 0 1
Booting was never trivial. There is also now a grub/grub2
distinction to learn...
