Just to reiterate the 180 driver installed via "system>administration>hardware drivers", was working fine until the latest updates via "system>administration>update manager".

I am moving everything from a 300 gigabyte IDE drive to a 500 gigabyte SATA drive. my grub menu looks like this: title Ubuntu 9.04, kernel 2.6.28-14-generic uuid 2d9b5798-36b3-41a8-9967-c5b30924d5f0 kernel /vmlinuz-2.6.28-14-generic root=UUID=36300d0e-63d7-43b5-90a3-3c43f0cb5eee ro quiet splash initrd /initrd.img-2.6.28-14-generic quiet
