Hello!! I'm running 4.0-CURRENT cvsupped last Friday. I've tried to move my installation from a partition on the first disk of the first IDE controller to a new disk that I've placed as master of the second IDE controller. Everything looks fine until the system tries to mount the root partition and can't find it, so it panics. I've tried breaking the boot process and setting num_ide_disks and rootdev to no avail.
