Dear Hein,

1) the sd driver warning is not an issue, as discussed in the kernel mailing 
list:
http://lkml.org/lkml/2008/1/10/286

2) the linux kernel included with ubuntu supports up to 4GB (1+3) of
ram, not just 3, so you should be ok (even with more memory, linux
doesn't crash, it just uses only the lower 4GB of RAM) (it's possible to
see up to 64GB by selecting the CONFIG_HIGHMEM64G option in the kernel
and recompiling from source).

3) your boot process does not crash at a different point everytime;
instead, due to multiple processes running in parallel, sometimes you
get some additional kernel messages after the (initramfs) prompt...

stay tuned, I will try to help you. I need some additional pieces of info from 
you:
a) if you select older kernels from the grub menu, can you boot successfully? 
or do you have this problem with all kernels?
b) did you get any error messages during upgrade?
c) when the upgrader asked you to replace the grub menu file 
(/boot/grub/menu.lst), which option did you choose?
