Bug Description
I'm recieving an interesting message at boot:
NOT using squashfs...
checking device /dev/hda
checking device /dev/hdb
checking device /dev/sda
found harddisk at /dev/sda
Will mount root from /dev/sda
mounting root partition, NOT using squashfs
mount: Mounting /dev/sda1 on /root failed: No such file or directory
Did not find /root/bin
sleeping for 2 seconds...
Mounting: mount -o rw,noatime,
...and then things continue to load normally. I suspected the message may be due to the minimal entries in /etc/fstab so I edited the file entering the drives UUID and still recieve the same message. It seems that quite a bit of time is being spent searching for the drive and then "sleeping". Thank you.

Corrected boot error by finding drives UUID using the command "ls /dev/disk/by-uuid -alh" in terminal and adding it to /boot/grub/menu.lst in the following manner:
There is a line that reads "#kopt=root=ro boot=disk"
I changed the line to read "kopt=root=UUID=(i put my computers uuid here) ro"
and then ran "sudo update-grub" in terminal. It updated the menu.lst entries with the information needed to boot without searching for the drive. Hope that helps.
