Does the new kernel has "libata" module loaded?
It was a sata disk in an external enclosure connected with USB, now it is in the same enclosure but conneceted with SATA cable.
Maybe now is a good time for you to put your Grub's menu config (either upload the full file to an external server or attach the file to the message). Also, include the output of "fdisk -l" that will help us to get a better understanding of your current system structure :-)
I can't attach files: TB hangs forever then, will register via yahoo!After 'waiting for root file system' and the 5 minute wait, initrd drops to a shell and says "/dev/dis/by-label/wd80_0jd-60.06 does not exist" and sure enough it don't and that us the new sata connection. So there is a sata module missing fro initrd.
