Public bug reported:
Since kernel 2.6.17-7, the boot parameter in /boot/grub/menu.lst is set
to /dev/sda1. Of four machines that are running latest Edgy, only one
will boot (it is SATA).
On the remaining machines, I have the manually change /dev/sda1 to
/dev/hda1 to get the machines to boot.
I believe that this is related to kernel changes around SATA/PATA from
2.6.17-7.
This bug is showing up in a lot of forum threads and is affecting a
number of Edgy testers. I suspect that there are a number of bugs
around the symptoms as well.
