No, but a guess from things I seen in the past. Had drives that
ultimately went bad exhibit this. From cold boot, some that spun up too
slowly (might boot OK by doing a warm boot). Marginal power (undersized
or eqpt added to original config) for everything starting up at the same
time (staged "spin up/power up" gets by this). Loose power/data
connectors. GSN cell phone inside the computer case =>:-O. (Joke, put it
does make noise in my speakers when it "trains up with the tower").

Have you looked at it with hdparm? If it's a "S.M.A.R.T." capable drive,
have you used smart tools (smartmon?) on it? Now I know you only changed
the OS, but I just went through this (different symptoms) when hardware
started to abdicate its responsibilities around the same time I upgraded
a couple things (seamonkey, e.g.).

Never assume.
