FYI the situation has changed a bit. When I upgraded to 8.04 (2.6.24) I became unable to see my ATA HDD. But after I upgraded to 8.10 (2.6.27) I can see my HDD, but not my ATA DVD-drive. Also I cannot boot with the pnpbios=off flag or vga=792. I thought that the display parameters ought not matter, but I can only boot without it. If I use one of these parameters the kernel just keeps writing:

[ 113.689099] irq 147, desc: c049e700, depth: 1, count: 0, unhandled: 0
[ 113.689103] ->handle_irq(): c01771c0, handle_bad_irq+0x0/0x2a0
[ 113.689114] ->chip(): c0475080, no_irq_chip+0x0/0x40
[ 113.689120] ->action(): 00000000
[ 113.689121] IRQ_DISABLED set

If I don't it starts the initramfs busybox. Then I wait a minute or two and I get messages about some drive being detected. Then I press Control-D and it boots fine. The error message above still floods my kernel log though.

I have attached dmesg.
