The machine in question is built around an Intel D945Gnt motherboard. It worked fine in Hardy with Kubuntu KDE3. dist-upgraded today using the kubuntu.org recommendations. After upgrade, was dropped to an initramfs shell and the boot device was not found, "Gave up waiting for root device."
After waiting a minute or two, I exited the initramfs shell and the boot process continued normally.
