Did some fidling around and came to this conclusion.

The old kernel .13 still used the old ATA/ATAPI driver AMD and nVidia IDE 
support (BLK_DEV_AMD74XX). And thus it mounts the disk on /dev/hda?.
But this new kernel .14 uses the new Serial ATA (prod) and Parallel ATA 
(experimental) drivers AMD/NVidia PATA support (PATA_AMD). And it mounts the 
disks as /dev/sda?. So in order to mount drives in this kernel U must use UUID 
or /dev/sda? in fstab instead of /dev/hda?.
This info should be posted somewhere since am guessing many ppl with PATA will 
not understand why they cant mount the drives as /dev/hda? anymore which they 
have been doing for the past ?? many years.

I also attached the new working fstab and menu.lst.
