Only that information was displayed? I'd would have expected more
("searching for splash image", "searching for kernel"...), but well, at a
first glance looks right to me, no errors at least.
Just in case, try to run "update-grub" and check if that fixes the
booting issue.

If you're using GRUB2 I can't understand why the those commands did not
complain given that partition "0" shouldn't exist :-?
