Title:
  [Dell Precision T3600] 3.2.0-63-generic cannot find OS partition upon
  boot

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Several of our Dell Precision T3600 (and possibly all) machines cannot
  seem to find their OS partition after they automatically installed
  3.2.0-63-generic this morning. We physically removed the drives and
  made sure they were in good shape and the BIOS seems to recognize the
  drive still. The only thing that seemed to work was rebooting the
  machine into a previous kernel (3.2.0-61-generic).

  These machines are running 12.04 at the moment.

  Essentially what we are seeing when booting the problematic kernel is:

  ata7: reset failed (errno=-11), retrying in 10 secs
  ata7: reset failed (errno=-11), retrying in 35 secs
  Gave up waiting for root device.  Common problems:
   - Boot args ...
     ...
   - Missing modules (cat /proc/modules; ls /dev)

  It then says the disk does not exist and drops to a BusyBox shell.
  Apologies for the lack of full output as I'm having to transcribe
  since I couldn't get a hold of the logs. I'm attaching a photo.
