Package: initramfs-tools
Version: 0.57b
Severity: normal

        Hi,

        I have a system with 2 IDE controllers, first is 
        VIA vt8233 driven by via82cxxx  and second is PDC20267 
        driven by pdc202xx_old. My root fs is on /dev/hde. Once I 
        updated kernel to 2.6.16 (smp), and initramfs-tools to 
        0.57b, and resulted vmlinuz+initrd failed to boot. 
        It said it could not find /dev/root, although in 
        busybox I could find perfectly good /dev/hde, then do
        mknod /dev/root b 33 0 , then exit busybox, and all booted well.
        Reverting back to kernel 2.6.15 did not help much, but reverting
        to initramfs-tools 0.55b solved the problem. So, something has
        to be made with 0.57b to make it as useful as before.
