Here is some output from the initramfs-shell: cat /proc/cmdline BOOT_IMAGE=/boot/vmlinuz-2.6.32-5-486 root=/dev/hda1 ro all_generic_ide cat /proc/modules ide_gd_mod 17175 0 - Live 0xc28a7000 ide_core 59674 1 ide_gd_mod, Live 0xc287f000 fan 2590 0 - Live 0xc285b000 thermal 9210 0 - Live 0xc283f000 thermal_sys 9346 2 fan,thermal, Live 0xc2827000 modprobe ata_generic cat /proc/modules ide_gd_mod 17175 0 - Live 0xc28a7000 ide_core 59674 1 ide_gd_mod, Live 0xc287f000 fan 2590 0 - Live 0xc285b000 thermal 9210 0 - Live 0xc283f000 thermal_sys 9346 2 fan,thermal, Live 0xc2827000 ================= At this point, there is no device under /dev for the harddisc (no oldstyle name like /dev/hda, no uuid name).
