Perhaps the issue I am seeing with 2.6.27 kernels is different from the busybox/initrd issue fixed here. I get the messages below during the setup of the drives on my machine. Is the kernel failing to set up my drives correctly? One clue is that it looks as though perhaps BOTH pata_acpi and ata_piix are trying to handle the hard drives interface??? I am also puzzled by the line "sda:<6>ata5.00: ATAPI: Optiarc DVD RW AD- 7530A", which seems to indicate that sda is somehow getting confused with my DVD-RW drive.
I tried mounting partitions from my drive from the command line and all attempts gave the same error: "device not found".
