I am acting (even if I am not officially on QA Team) as a bug triager.
And following recommendations on:
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Bugs/HowToTriage section Complete Reports,
I set the bug to me, until I think a developer would have enough information to begin investigation with enough information, at which point, I would reassign the bug to Nobody.

...It is a random shot.

Yes, but which version of Grub (Debian?) are you using, right now?
I tend to suppose you locked grub to a particuliar version, to avoid
problem about upgrading your system. Is it the case?

Which AMD microprocessors? (I ask because a bug about NX bit
have been fixed for grub)

Indeed, I am really not a Grub guru, but since there doesn't seems to be much people having exactly the same problem, yes it would need quite some investigation on your work. I can imagine, that building grub without any difference from Debian, and adding patches until we find which one cause problem, could be used as an investigation method. But you would have to try each build, since you are the one having the hardware that don't work well with Ubuntu's version of Grub.
And if you don't want to do much of this kind of work, probably better reclose the bug, and let people work on others. Frankly, I would understand that.
