Bug#287970: instalation on SATA drive and Kernel Panic

[Robert Paciorek <robert@newworld.n17.waw.pl>]

Package: kernel-image-2.6.9-1-686-smp
Version: 2.6.9-3

Hi,

I install 2.6.9 kernel from Debian on 2.6.27 kernel. While booting kernel 2.6 
after sucsesfull instalation I have "Kernel panic" error (because cannot open 
dev/console).

Solution: I change drive identifation in /boot/grub/menu.lst and /etc/fstab 
from /dev/hddX (use by kernel 2.4) to /dev/sdaX (2.6 see my hdd as SCSI 
device). And system booting and working correctly.

Notice: When I use update-grub in new menu.lst file is not working 
"root=/dev/hdd5" kernel's options instead of working "root=/dev/sda5".

booloader: grub 0.95+cvs20040624-10
matherboard: Gigabyte GA-8GPNXP Duo (sata controler: ICH6)
disk: Maxtor DiamondMax 9 Plus 200 GB 8M ATA/150

Thanks,
