One thing that aggravates this problem is having the drives in a software RAID-1.
I rebuilt the server from scratch with md0 as a RAID-1 entirely with LVM in it. This boots because of grub2 being able to handle booting from LVM.
When this system boots the sdb drive in the RAID-1 reports errors and starts re-syncing.
The same server did not have this problem running Ubuntu 8.04.4 LTS Hardy only a couple hours before. It was first built as Lucid, then Hardy then Lucid again and the issue only occurs when it's running Lucid.
