Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: udev

In the live CD environment of 9.04 (Jaunty), a SATA disk is assigned a symlink 
like this:
/dev/disk/by-id/scsi-SATA_VBOX_HARDDISK_VBca24768b-80703176 -> /dev/sda

In the initramfs (BusyBox) of a 9.04 installation, the exact same /dev/sda will 
now have a symlink like this:
/dev/disk/by-id/scsi-1ATA_VBOX_HARDDISK_VBca24768b-80703176 -> /dev/sda

(The scsi-SATA became scsi-1ATA.)  I would expect the /by-id/ symlinks
to remain consistent.

Is the udev somehow different in the initramfs environment?

I think my problem is related to this:
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=490110,

This was NOT the behaviour in 8.10, where both the live environment and
the initramfs agreed on the "1ATA" style of naming convention.
