In response to Kamal's post:
I also had this black screen during boot.
There's some debate on the "vga=791" option not properly working for Gutsy. I removed it and this happened to work for me:
kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.22-14-generic root=UUID=8d6cb6c2-79d8-4e49-ac5d-9ad8f2d3df42 ro quiet nosplash
I disabled splash because i want to see the boot messages. But maybe this also work with the "splash" option set.
