The rootfs entries are interesting. I believe they are used by initrd, but should be overwritten by proper /dev entries later in the boot process.
What's the content of /proc/partitions for both kernels?Under 2.6.33.3: $ cat /proc/partitions major minor #blocks name 3 0 156290904 hda 3 1 9767488 hda1 3 2 58597087 hda2 3 3 979965 hda3 3 4 86943780 hda4 Under 2.6.37: $ cat /proc/partitions major minor #blocks name 8 0 156290904 sda 8 1 9767488 sda1 8 2 58597087 sda2 8 3 979965 sda3 8 4 86943780 sda4
So the kernels see the partitions, but .33.3 doesn't have the device files. Then I think there's some problem with udev. Check the output of "udevinfo --export-db" with both kernels to know if udev sees your disk. Also see if you can find your partitions in /dev/disk/.
