** Description changed:

  After installing the updated kernel (3.8.0-29), I was suddenly unable to
  boot. I will experience a frozen screen for several seconds, followed by
  an error claiming that my installation partition cannot be found.
  However, the 3.8.0-27 kernel seems to work just fine.
  
  I attempted an fsck, but no errors were found. I then removed the -29
  kernel completely (sudo apt-get purge, followed by sudo update-grub),
  reinstalled it, but ended up with the same result.
  
- I'm using Ubuntu 13.04 x86_64, with all the latest stable updates
- installed. My machine's hard drive is controll by an Intel ICH9R/DO/DH
- SATA AHCI Controller chipset, with Ubuntu stored on an exteded
- partition, which uses EXT4 (/dev/sda6). My first three partitions are
- Windows installs, with NTFS. Also, I have /dev/sda7 as my Swap
- partition. If there are anymore details I can provide, please don't
- hesitate to ask.
