Checking the UUID:

ls /dev/disk/by-uuid/ed910c93-d465-4fad-a95f-ea7361326f57 -l
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 10 2009-01-14 12:17 /dev/disk/by-uuid/ed910c93-d465-4fad-a95f-ea7361326f57 -> ../../sda4

It is also mounted:
mount | grep boot
/dev/sda4 on /boot type ext3 (rw,relatime,errors=remount-ro)

Most of the time update-grub writes the path-names correctly, it is only after editing (for example), the default kernel command line when I get the prompt running update-grub.
