I found the solution for my problem, at least: somewhere in the incremental changes in the 2.6.20.* kernels, the method of determining uuid must have changed: my fstab contained an *almost* identical fstab to what the latest kernels identified the disk as (see screenshot of Gnome disk properties and fstab extract
I changed the fstab with the new uuid and the reboot worked fine! ** Attachment added: "uuid discrepancy" http://librarian.launchpad.net/7398890/uuid-discrepancy.png -- IDE disks not found https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/97325 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
