In:

menuentry "Debian GNU/Linux, linux 2.6.26-1-686" {
          set root=(hd0,1)
          search --fs-uuid --set 72cbcfa8-57bf-4b37-9489-e3eaf056d94d
          linux  /vmlinuz-2.6.26-1-686 root=/dev/mapper/castor-root ro selinux=1 
          initrd /initrd.img-2.6.26-1-686
}

Please try inserting:

	echo $root
	echo Press enter to continue
	read

after the search command, and tell us if it has changed the value of root
variable (will be printed to screen).
