Bug#555702: ATA drive root partition "does not exist"



Further information  re   this package "bug" [do not  tell me  it is not]:
It  appears that my PATA drive  devices are not existent with  this  new  kernel package.

I boot  from ATA drive
Duplicate UUID on  the cloned SATA  drive partition was changed.
Now I  get long   delay in   boot  and   eventually a  message:
" Gave up  waiting for root device. Common problems:
...
ALERT! /dev/disk/by-uuid/[long UUID number] does not exist
Dropping  to a  shell
..."

similar   message  after   changing  GRUB2   to no UUID:
"...
 ALERT! /dev/hda15 does not  exist
..."

No joy   with  adding   rootdelay=90 option  to  grub2

From the shell:
ls /dev/hda*
shows  no devices of  that  name, whereas
ls /dev/sda*
shows the full  complement
