hmm works fine here, until bug is demonstrated,
you don't make yourself friends with overly critical settings.

a) try to boot with rootdelay=9
b) if dropped to console send the output of
/lib/udev/vol_id -t /dev/sda5

there is currently zero info on how to reproduce it,
so as the normal reportbug output would help:
echo "-- /proc/cmdline"
cat /proc/cmdline
echo
echo "-- /proc/filesystems"
grep -v nodev /proc/filesystems
echo
echo "-- lsmod"
lsmod
echo
if [ -r /etc/kernel-img.conf ]; then
echo "-- /etc/kernel-img.conf"
cat /etc/kernel-img.conf
echo
fi
if [ -r /etc/initramfs-tools/initramfs.conf ]; then
echo "-- /etc/initramfs-tools/initramfs.conf"
sed 's/#.*$//;/^[[:space:]]*$/d' /etc/initramfs-tools/initramfs.conf
echo
fi
