I am afraid I meet the same problem in Ubuntu 8.04 LTS AMD64 version,
The following is what I found:
1. I have install the Ubuntu 9.04 i386 in my disk(hd0). Unfortunately, the default installation is used EXT4 file system, not EXT3.
2. After that, I try to install Ubuntu 8.04 LTS AMD64 into my another disk(hd1).
3. Ubuntu 8.04 can not correctly detect the 9.04 in the dish (hd0), then ,it install the Grub in the disk (Hd1)(I think this is correct), but rewrite the MBR in the (hd0), make the MBR point to (hd1).
4. after reboot, I found I can not enter ubuntu 9.04 again. I used 9.04 install CD boot and reinstall grub can fix this problem.
It is look like very close this problem.
