This doesn't look *that* bad. It hangs right before showing the menu or
at least its command line. I googled for "welcome to grub!" and found
a hint that this *might* actually be a graphics problem. See this bug
report:

http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=594967

It looks like the fix didn't make into stable, but you can try setting
GRUB_TERMINAL=console.

This is weird. To me, that suggests that grub tries to load one of the
stages from one of the disks on that controller. But I might be wrong.
