This happened to me too.
I followed more or less the same steps as Paulo:
- upgrade linux-image-2.6.14-2-686 from 2.6.14-4 to 2.6.14.5;
- fail to reboot with the error messages above that appears 4 times with
increasing delay, saying: "Waiting X second for /sys/block/hda/dev to
show up";
- reboot with kernel 2.4.27 then download and install
linux-image-2.6.12-1-686 to have a system fully functional.
