I've also come across this, and it seems only to affect DELL 2950s. I've not logged a bug because I couldn't work out /where/ (i.e. which package) I should log it against. You need to boot a Rescue CD [*] and change all occurrences of sdb to sda in the files /boot/grub/menu.lst and /etc/fstab. (At least, that's what my memory suggests as I don't have my notes to hand.)
