A grub problem would not cause a kernel panic, particularly not this kernel panic. If grub had any trouble working or locating partitions, it wouldn't load the kernel at all.

Can you try booting older release of debian (i think you mentioned old ones work), just to confirm it is not the issue with kernel version or the disk itself.

If that test does not pass, check jumpers on the IDE disk, try various combinations (CS, Master, Slave).
Do you have other disks inside ?

If the test passes (old version of debian works) then post output of (during live cd or old version installed)
As root:
Code:
lshw > hw.txt

Attach the hw.txt, perhaps some bugs can be found online regarding specific hardware combinations but i cannot promise anything Smilie

Hope that helps

Peasant.
