I have a debian sid. I can't boot anymore with grub because of an error 24.
So I use a knoppix to rescue my Debian.
The problem is that I can't mount my root partition (which is /dev/hda4)

I have a new Supermicro X6DHT-G motherboard based system and I'm have a

using the IDE SATA controller and some PATA to SATA interface.
