I still have this issue. In fact, yesterday morning Feisty decided to change one of my drives from ide to scsi. I had to boot with a desktop cd, find out what the OS was calling them, and then change /etc/fstab to the correct name to get it to work. Previously, It had rebooted about 20 times without issue. I have been running updates as they become available, at least daily.

This system is running on a Thinkpad with XP (host os) running VMWare Player and then Feisty Beta (guest os). I did not have these issues with edgy. Since I have reinstalled Feisty several times, herd 4 on, I have been able to repeat the recognition of the scsi devices, which are clearly defined as ide in the vmx setup file. I have been running updates as they become available, at least daily. I have not been able to repeat its changing between from ide to scsi between one boot up and another, and I do not wish to.

Please let me know if you would like any additional information. I would be happy to help.

Regards,

Kevin
