I believe that if no partitions are mounted you should see something along the lines of: sata_sil 15305 4294967295 I get the feeling a boot time the system is not detecting any drives attached to the controller since the driver is not being loaded. I would use the --with=sata_sil parameter in creating the new initrd file. FYI, the generated initrd file is just a gzipped cpio file. So, you can easily list the contents by using: zcat initrd_name | cpio -it Ed
