Doesn't find my root drive :(.

Its a SATA drive, on PIIX.
Last -mm I tried ('cause of the raid problems) was -mm1, so I don't know
when did this broke. Under -mm1, the disk is this:

libata version 1.30 loaded.

With -mm6, the kernel doesn't find it. I get this on boot:

kinit: try_name sda,1 = dev(8,1)
kinit: name_to_dev_t(/dev/sda1) = dev(8.1)
kinit: root_dev = dev(8,1)
kinit: failed to identify filesystem /dev/root, trying all
kinit: trying to mount /dev/root on /root with type ext3
kinit: Cannot open root device dev(8,1)

I have tried to get this message from -mm1, but could not get it in any log.
But... I remember to see that the boot message is like:

kinit: try_name sda,1 = sda1(8,1)
                        ^^^^
I have verified I built -mm6 with ext3,sata-piix and so on, all builtin.

Any ideas ?

TIA
