I think I have a problem related to this. I recently upgraded from feisty (fresh install - wiped root partition) and the install worked fine.
I noticed my previous /dev/hda disk is now known as /dev/sda in gutsy, even though it is a PATA disk, but didn't think more about it at the time. Root partition is on another disk (which is serial ata, WDC WD2500KS-00M ) known as /dev/sdb (it was a scsi dev in feisty too). The problem is my system won't cold boot (ie after it has been powered down for a while) - the kernel stops somewhere after grub and I'm dumped to a rescue shell with no access to disk. It complains about not finding root partition, in fact it can't find /dev/sdb at all. I can mount /dev/sda* fine in the rescue shell, but nothing from /dev/sdb) The funny thing is if I reboot from the rescue shell, gusty will happily boot. This is reproducible EVERY time. I boot once, and as soon as it hangs after grub I hit ctrl-alt-delete and everything works the second time.
