Putting the PATA drivers and ext3 components into the kernel image rather than modules makes no difference. Near enough the same config boots on 2.6.26rc1 (git pulled today). Apologies for posting this to the main kernel list - the linux-next list doesn't yet appear to be fully on GMANE ( http://dir.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel.next ) or Google Groups... lspci for the IDE interface: 00:1f.1 IDE interface: Intel Corporation 82801EB/ER (ICH5/ICH5R) IDE Controller (rev 02) 00:1f.2 IDE interface: Intel Corporation 82801EB (ICH5) SATA Controller (rev 02) The kernel config used is on http://sucs.org/~sits/test/kernel-config-20080508 . -- Sitsofe
