I disagree with this assessment. It may not be a kernel bug, but it is a bug which makes my system unbootable. If you are sure it is not a kernel bug, then you should reassign the bug to the offending party.
Of course I know about disk labels, but Debian doesn't seem to be using them. The point is not whether I could fix my system, but why it is broken in the first place. Furthermore, I am not convinced that the kernel never has guaranteed device ordering. This may be true today, now that we have udev, but it would have broken countless systems during the last sixteen years. Oh, and incidentally, this has never happened to me before, and I have been using Linux for fifteen and a half of these sixteen years.
I also object to the dismissive manner in which this bug report was rejected. If Debian does not want to receive any bug reports from its users, or in fact wishes to reduce its user base, then this is the correct way to continue. Otherwise it is not.
