Subject: Re: kernel upgrade woes (possibly SATA/IDE confusion)
Earlier I wrote:

Meta: is this on-topic for this list? If so (or even if not), is there
somewhere else I should be asking to have a better chance of response?
[...]
:2.6.24.7 failed to boot, but 'ide0=noprobe' doesn't help. Adding
'irqpoll'
:(and not 'ide0=...') gets it to boot but fails to mount other partitions
:of the boot disk. Changing /etc/fstab to replace all occurrences of 'sda'
:with 'hda' gets it to boot succesfully and mount the partitions
correctly.
Alternatively, adding 'noapic' or 'nolapic' also lead to a successful
boot.
:2.6.25.20 fails to boot; 'ide0=noprobe' doesn't help, nor does 'irqpoll',
:nor does either version of /etc/fstab. I've also tried 'pci=routeirq'
:without success.
Nor do 'noapic' or 'nolapic' help here.
