Bug#483985: linux-image-2.6.25-2-686: CONFIG_PATA_* disabled
 

Package: linux-image-2.6.25-2-686
Version: 2.6.25-4
Severity: normal

CONFIG_PATA_* options are unset in config. This makes all IDE drives to
get hdx names instead of sdx and my system does not boot. Is there serious
reason to unset this options? They were set in 2.6.24 and earlier...
