Dear John, Thanks for this hint, based on this I also found the helpful page on http://backreference.org/2010/07/04/modifying-initrdinitramfs-files/ thus I have unpacked the /initrd.img then added a file conf/modules containing the line ide-generic and then repacked the /initrd.img Now it works well again and the driver is found during boot. And this is much less painful than recompiling a kernel package.
