Hello Hilario;  could you provide some information about which kernel or
version of Ubuntu you have upgraded from?

IDE disks now appear under the SCSI layer (just as USB and Firewire
disks do aswell);  as such the hard-disk is now accessed as '/dev/sdX'
instead of '/dev/hdY'.

During an upgrade, one of the methods that is used to ensuring smooth
transfer from the old method of referring disks, to the new method is by
referring to the disk using a unique UUID identifier.

The upgrade process should have taken care of converting these;  have
you done a normal upgrade, or just installed the 'linux-image' package?

Entries within a new '/etc/fstab' will probably look something like:

UUID=b1d95d5f-8bd6-3e7a-af2e-a8f3624ccfaf / ext3 defaults,errors
=remount-ro 0 1
