I also experienced the problem after installing Breezy (together with the issue
that the AccessIBM button does not boot into Rescue&Recovery anymore, but that
seems to be caused by overwriting the original MBR) and found the following

Basically this guy suggests to change the partition type of the rescue partition
from "compaq diagnostics" (0x12) to "fat 32" (0x0b). For me this works fine,
Rescue&Recovery does boot again without a blue screen.

I don't know whats the real reason for this (it did work before the install with
the old partition type) but maybe it can give some additional hints.
