   I could ditto Richard, same problem (panic, can't mount) since 
2877 up to 2885.  Yes I'm usin, as I posted before, mount by label, 
IDE/sata mix.  Both boots (fc6, FC7) are from IDE tho (hda, hdb .. 
in that order). As DJ alluded to, I trust the situation is bein 
worked on.

   So I'll ask you dragoran, since I have already an /sda (sata, 
non-boot) drive, what should /hda be renamed to?  An where? 
device.map?

 ~ $ cat /boot/grub/device.map
# this device map was generated by anaconda
(hd0)     /dev/hda
(hd1)     /dev/hdb
