I ran into the same problem with my AMD64 setup when I upgradeded to kernel 2.6.2 - the SATA drives where listed as hda and hdb, and ide drives as hde and hdf. I fixed it by adding this kernel boot option in /boot/grub/menu.list for the 2.6.2 kernel: ide=reverse Now the ide drives are hda and hdb again. Christian

I'm Sorry for the off-topic, because I use SuSE 9.0, 32 bits Athlon. The problem is with a mobo Asus A7V600 and the VIA VT8237 chipset controller. I have any SATA hard disk, and I have disabled in the bios the via sata controller. When i boot with kernel 2.4, the 2 ide hard disks are /dev/hda and /dev/hdb, but when i boot with kernel 2.6 (Kraxel 2.6.2), they appear as /dev/hde and /dev/hdf, and can't load the system completly, because the device change.
¿I can resolving this problem booting with the patch CD? ¿Or it works only for 64 bits? ¿Or how can make a boot CD with kernel 2.6- 32 bits?
Thanks, Juan
