Please ignore my request for /etc/default/grub

fdisk -l
and fstab should be enough to allow someone to fix your problem.

The only other problem you might have is if, in swapping hard drives,

problem you've posted (grub bitching it can't find the partition
described by uuid) - but it can cause problems.
