Public bug reported: Since 3.2.0-21 the kernel does not locate my hard drive. Consequently, the kernel cannot locate the system partition, which results in a kernel panic -- unable to mount root filesystem.
The suggested valid boot devices following this error include only my CD-ROM drive (sr0). Kernel 3.2.0-20 boots fine. Kernel 3.2.0-22 suffers the same problem as 3.2.0-21. Please let me know if I can supply any further/more specific information.
