03 is the major number for hda. 03:01 is /dev/hda1.
The request module message indicates that you don't have a device driver for
hda1which means that you haven't loaded ide-disk, or you didn't load
ide-probe-mod before ide-disk from your initrd.
One possible cause for this is that you loaded an initrd from a different
kernel version and therefore the initrd couldn't load a module.

Does your kernel-img.conf match mine?
rjc@lyta:/tmp$ cat /etc/kernel-img.conf
do_symlinks=yes
do_initrd=yes
rjc@lyta:/tmp$
PS I've CC'd this to debian-user as it's not an ISP issue.
