Bug Description
The current hardy kernel and initramfs tools include the amd74xx in the initramfs which prevents the use of the corresponding PATA driver, pata_amd. Is there a particular reason for this?
I've been booted for a couple of hours now this morning with pata_amd and everything *seems* OK.
Unfortunately to force the use of pata_amd I had to change my initramfs from including "most" modules to only the ones listed in the modules file and included the needed boot modules minus the amd74xx and generic modules. This is a bit ugly to have to maintain.
Thots?

Would you mind stating what kernel version you are using? Also, you might want to try the latest hardy kernel, 2.6.24-8-generic, which has some disk module related fixes.
