Not exactly: my fault to not including previous mails, but basically I've two 
different devices: one driven by sata_sil, the other by piix.
cfr: http://lkml.org/lkml/2006/11/12/20
In this dmesg, the kernel finds only the second device, and assigns the 
name "sda"; of course the right drive (the real "sda" on my system) is not 
detected so the kernel is searching the "/" filesystem where it cannot be 
found.

here the relevant part of lspci output:
