Strange that the installer didn't take care of this.
In any case, I've found for a few years now that whenever I upgrade from
a debian kernel to a debian kernel (i.e, I use apt-get and don't compile
my own), that it builds initrd so that the disks mount correctly.

On debian, edit the file /boot/grub/menu.lst.
Look for the line that starts "# kopt=" and add it there.
Then, run /sbin/update-grub.
This has the added advantage of updating the relevent lines whenever you
apt-get install a new kernel.
Mark.
