Got the same problem yesterday evening on my machine at home. It is a
P4P800 deLuxe mobo with 2 S-ATA drives. Did you already logged it at bugzilla?
I planned to do this when I'm home and gave time tonight or tomorrow.
Did it also change the default boot number back to 0, where it should have
been something else. Kernel upgrades nevere did that to me until yesterday.
