My machine is/was running -mm3 on a software raid1 setup.
After the upgrade to -mm4 it boots to the point where it says:

md: Autodetecting RAID arrays.
md: autorun ...
md: ... autorun DONE.
md: Loading md_d0: /dev/sda
md: bind<sda>
md: bind<sdb>
raid1: raid set md_d0 active with 2 out of 2 mirrors

CacheFS: filesystem mounted read-only
VFS: Cannot open root device "md_d0p1" or unknown_block (254,1)
Please append a correct "root=" boot option

lilo config:
