try appending "irqpoll" that it looks like the following:
title Ubuntu 8.04, kernel 2.6.24-16-generic root (hd0,2) kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.24-16-generic root=UUID=5152f10c-4ae1-4b61-b8cd-7d70b925d309 ro "irqpoll" quiet splash initrd /boot/initrd.img-2.6.24-16-generic quiet
hopefully that helps ...
