This can mean 2 things: - the drivers needed for your disk controller are not available; if your laptop has SATA, this is pretty likely for 2.6.8 and less so for 2.6.12 - your bootloader config and /etc/fstab refer to /dev/hda (for the 2.4 kernel), but the SATA driver in the 2.6 kernel uses /dev/sda You can check this by carefully reading the messages on console during boot (use shift-pageup to scroll back up).
