I have a similiar problem here on Ubuntu Karmic Beta:
- Athlon 64 with ASRock N68PV-GS Mainboard and nForce 630 Chipset
- 2 SATA (no raid)
  - sda1: root
  - sdb1: my data

When trying to boot Ubuntu Karmic, after a few seconds it drops to a
BusyBox shell with the message:

"Gave up waiting for root device. Common problems:
  - Boot args (cat /proc/cmdline
     - Check rootdelay= (did the system wait long enough?)
     - Check root= (did the system wait for the right device?)
  - Missing modules (cat /proc/modules; ls /dev)
ALERT! /dev/disk/by-uuid/34be7e11-58e0-4d7a-8b13-344abf1c85ee does not exist. Dropping to a shell!"

Setting rootdelay to 130 in grub doesn't work.
