It appears that the *intent* with Gutsy was to switch the drives over to /dev/sd* completely. That did not happen for SiS 5513 IDE controllers.
According to my personal experience, these changes allowed me to use the stock Ubuntu kernels: Feisty: No changes from previous installs. Feisty kernels were working fine with SiS 5513. Gutsy: Some report fresh install with Gutsy works fine. An upgrade is another matter. Change the /etc/fstab file for the / (root) partition only to /dev/sd* instead of /dev/hd*. Hardy: Change the /etc/fstab file for all partitions to use /dev/sd* instead of /dev/hd*. Also, if you specify the boot directory by /dev (instead of UUID) in /boot/grub/menu.lst, change to /dev/sd* there also. These kind of changes need to be noted in the distribution notes for upgrading.
