If you read my previous post carefully, I clearly indicated that I had re-installed debian several times since my old post indicates with the old UUID. In my re-installations, I had the HDD reformatted. As such, the UUID got regenerated with a different one. Just to assure you, the current installation, i.e. GRUB menu, etc., does reflect to the new UUID, yet the booting process still ends up with such error messages showing the new UUID. So, no a-ha moment here.

That is a strange problem, because the grub menu is generated from /boot/grub/grub.cfg and that is on the disk it can't find...?

Maybe it is a udev thing, hasn't findished handing out the uuid quick enough.

Could you please at least try booting with ‘rootdelay=10’, for example.

Exactly.

TBH, I have no idea. If there is a fix on this, I sure would like to give it a try.

I tried with rootdelay=10 seconds and/or rootdelay=300 seconds (5 minutes) with the same error messages. I have noticed the later (5 minutes delay) generated a whole lot of the following messages before it ended up prompting with the BusyBox shell prompt. During the messages shown below, I noticed my 3.5" Floppy drive whirling up. I put in a blank formatted 3.5" disc into the floppy drive and the messages kept spitting out. I don't know if this makes any difference.

Would it be possible for you to provide more log info, from either the boot sequence or from any log files on disk? Also, if possible, more info about the hardware.

Since you are getting so many acpi related issues, you could try booting with acpi=off. This is useful for further troubleshooting; if it still fails, then there is some unknown problem. If it doesn't then there is likely a acpi related bug/issue. In this case, there are several other boot params that are not so drastic as entirely disabling acpi that you can try in the next step.
