[Bug 594523] Re: ALERT! /dev/disk ... does not exist.

** Description changed:

  I recently clean-installed Lucid on my Toshiba NB200 netbook as a dual
  boot with XP, using a bootable USB drive made with LiveUSB Creator. I
  previously had 9.10, no problems.
  
  However, now when I boot into Linux I get the above error and the
  computer drops to the BusyBox shell (initramfs). However, if I wait a
  while and type reboot the machine sometimes loads linux OK (albeit very
  slowly). booting in recovery mode makes no difference.
  
  Without quiet splash, the last line is:
  
  sd 2:0:0:0: [sda] Attached SCSI Disk
  
  it hangs here before dropping out.
  
  It seems not to be specific to a particular kernal version as if I
  select older kernals to boot from I have the same problem (versions
  20-22).
  
  I tried the advice given here:
  
  http://sourceforge.net/apps/mediawiki/bootinfoscript/index.php?title=Boot_Problems:search
  
  ..but to no avail.
  
- I have tried reinstalling, with a freshly downloaded copy of Ubuntu
- 10.04 , but again the same problem.
