Bug description:
  The machine in question is built around an Intel D945Gnt motherboard.
  It worked fine in Hardy with Kubuntu KDE3.  dist-upgraded today using
  the kubuntu.org recommendations.  After upgrade, was dropped to an
  initramfs shell and the boot device was not found, "Gave up waiting
  for root device."  Root device is a SATA hard drive.

  After waiting a minute or two, I exited the initramfs shell and the
  boot process continued normally.

  Adding rootdelay=90 to the current kernel line in menu.list gets a
  good boot.  It's at least a work around.
