Grub has its own idea of drive and partition naming (hd0, hd1 etc) that doesn't correspond to the usual Linux way.
ash isn't part of grub; for it to have come up you've managed to boot something. Quite often the Ubuntu installer doesn't seem to do the 100% right thing with setting up the list of device driver modules to autoload - especially on dual boot setups - and needs a little tweaking.
I'm currently planning to spend the day of Sunday 14th at Bletchley Park, with C; I could probably stop off at yours afterwards if the timing suits (early evening at a rough guess) ?
