I have the same problem with 2.6.19 and later. The previous kernel with
same .config works, but it's not true for 2.6.19 and 2.6.30.

Re-enable sata/scsi/usb/whatever is your root behind stuff back again? What

does
your .config look like?

regards,

I selected everything about ATA to <*> or <M>, and made initrd for the
newly-built kernel, still unable to boot.

The .config was attached, I have kdb-4.4 patched.
