2.6.25 x86_64 boots fine as does -git1/2 boxes using reiserfs and ext3. 
With xfs it can't find these and drops into a shell.

 From my .config

CONFIG_XFS_POSIX_ACL=y
CONFIG_XFS_RT=y

The other boxes are configure pretty much the same, but I can diff the 
.config's if required.

It doesn't find the device either with 2.6.25-git1 or 2.6.25-git2. I've 
tried a new kernel with xfs compiled in rather than as a module. The odd 
thing is that other boxes with ext3, jfs and reiserfs are fine, 2 of 
them with SATA drives are working with 2.6.25-git2.
The BIOS settings (it's the latest BIOS), but it's OK on 2.6.25, just a 
problem from 2.6.25-git1.

It doesn't find the device either with 2.6.25-git1 or 2.6.25-git2. I've
tried a new kernel with xfs compiled in rather than as a module. The odd
thing is that other boxes with ext3, jfs and reiserfs are fine, 2 of
them with SATA drives are working with 2.6.25-git2.
The BIOS settings (it's the latest BIOS), but it's OK on 2.6.25, just a
