What do you suggest as > the simplest one ? What I would recommend for the moment is to boot into a working kernel and edit /sbin/mkinitrd and go to line 1411 or there about and change: wait_for_scsi="no" to wait_for_scsi="yes" Then rebuild your initrd like this: mkinitrd -f /boot/initrd-2.6.27-3.fc10.i686.img 2.6.27-3.fc10.i686 This may not be the final solution. This is just a workaround to force wait_for_scsi for all initrd builds. That may be suboptimal in the long run but necessary here for now.
