Hello,

I followed your discussion. I still have a problem. The workaround of Alan 
works fine from a technical point of view using mkinitramfs. Now the hardware 
is assigned to the right devices. But I have some commercial software that 
(somehow) determines the "setup" of the computer. After the mkinitramfs change 
this setup has changed and the software does not work any more. Unfortunately 
my previous running image does not work at the moment (same problem, maybe 
related to "grub"). 

Are there other "simple" workarounds? Are there some simple steps that can be 
used to change the setup?

Thank you very much for your hints,
   Lars
