I was able to modify my sources.list and test linux-image-2.6.24-5-386. I use the nvidia driver, so it could not load the kernel module, but it worked with the nv driver. The devices mounted fine without modification.
After booting to the gutsy kernel and removing the hardy kernel, apt gave me the following: Log started: 2008-02-01 11:19:39 (Reading database ... 177899 files and directories currently installed.)

I'm going to research this now.
