I am not sure if it is the same bug, but I believe so. I have recently
installed Feisty on a Dell Optiplex 745. It only has one SATA drive, and
no IDE drives.

LiveCD started without any problems, and I was able to install Kubuntu
on the system easily. However, after that the installed system did not
boot. It would just hang for ~3 seconds, and then stop, and bring me to
the ash shell. I tried to start it with acpi=off, and other changes I
found on the net, but to no avail.

At last, however, I realized that the problem was that the grub entry
was incorrect: the root was set to /dev/hda1, while the correct root is,
obviously /dev/sda1. After changing it in menu.lst, I was able to boot
into the system. However, this is still a problem since when I installed
the 2.6.20-16 linux image, it also set the root to /dev/hda1, and again
I had to set it to /dev/sda1 manually.
