Also, hd(0,0) is /dev/hda3 correct? You didn't swap ide cables or anything and are now tring to boot off of an old kernel? I don't have an XFS system. But I belive it works with 2.6.* kernels. You problem looks like you are missing xfs support in your kernel. If you say you have it compilied in, then perhaps you are not booting the kernel you think you are. Best of luck.
