Ok, I believe someone mentioned this being a problem on one of the
other partitions too, but the partitions are definitely not all
getting found on kernel version 1.3.23:

eyelab:~# fdisk /dev/sda

Command (m for help): p

Disk /dev/sda: 64 heads, 32 sectors, 520 cylinders
Units = cylinders of 2048 * 512 bytes

Device Boot Begin Start End Blocks Id System
/dev/sda1 102 102 504 412672 5 Extended
/dev/sda2 2 2 101 102400 6 DOS 16-bit >=32M
/dev/sda3 * 1 1 1 1008 a OS/2 Boot Manager
/dev/sda4 505 505 520 16384 82 Linux swap

/dev/sda6 * 322 322 504 187376 83 Linux native

Command (m for help): q

And from the bootup:

Sep 3 18:51:43 eyelab kernel: Partition check:
Sep 3 18:51:43 eyelab kernel: sda: sda1 < sda5 > sda2 sda3 sda4
Sep 3 18:51:43 eyelab kernel: sdb: sdb1 < sdb5 >
Sep 3 18:51:43 eyelab kernel: hda: hda1 < hda5 hda6 >
Sep 3 18:51:43 eyelab kernel: hdb: hdb1 < hdb5 >

The scsi drives are running off of an Adaptec 1520 card, the kernel is
compiled in elf with gcc-2.7.0. If anyone needs any other
information, please let me know.
