I get this when booting up from any kernel from GRUB after updating from Jaunty to Karmic from the update manager.
/dev/disk, /dev/sdaX, and /dev/sdbX are all missing on the Karmic partition, and fstab gives a UDID for the / partition which is supposed to be in /dev/disk/by-uuid, but is not there since /dev/disk does not exist.
I've had this system since Hoary Hedgehog and this is really ******* me off that I have always had to salvage my system after a supposedly stable upgrade. Literally every upgrade I've ever done has ****** up and I consider myself pretty good with linux, and there is usually no support for widespread errors like this. I have seen 20+ threads with this problem and almost none of them have actually been solved.
