Public bug reported:

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.
