Hi Stepehen,
did you try, to enter just the devices (like /dev/sda1, dev/sdb1 etc.) instead 
of using UUID?

If that is working, try to add the UUID later.
Asd far as I know, there is also a kernel parameter, which inhibits to check 
for UUIDs. I blieve, it is nouuid, but I am not sure.

I would think in that direction, maybe the UUIDs are wrong.

Good luck!
