(Get the code!)
In Bug #40993 I have outlined similar problems which I have been having with a system which has two active IDE controllers. These problems surfaced with the installation (from scratch and from a dist-upgrade) from 5.10 to 6.06.
I will not repeat the details of my findings here. Suffice it to say that the order of the controllers (and consequently the naming of the disks attached to the two controllers) changes between installation and first boot. My only recourse has been to connect all disks to the same controller.
On a possibly related note, the RAID partitions defined on the four disks also change names. The device called /dev/md1 during installation becomes /dev/md0 at first boot.
Thanks for your attention
