ALERT! /dev/sda1 does not exist. Dropping to a shell!
Oh, that might be not your controller's bug, but initramfs-tools bug. You
can either use yaird to generate your initrd (check out [0] on how to do
that), or increase the value of sleep immediately after udevsynthesize
call in /usr/share/initramfs-tools/init from 2 to 20. That should give
udev enough time to create the devices. Of course, there is a possibilty
that devices not created because of the driver problems, but if you use
yaird, this possibility may be rules out.
