Hey All,

I'm having an  odd issue, and the only thing I can imagine is that there 
has been a major change between 8.1 and 8.2.

Using the 8.1 kernel everything is dandy.  But when I try to use a newly 
compiled kernel from 8.2(GENERIC) I have no luck.  Root will not mount.

Here are relevant kernel messages under 8.1...

Under 8.2 I don't see...

--->atapci2: AHCI called from vendor specific driver
--->atapci2: AHCI v1.10 controller with 4 3Gbps ports, PM not supported

at all, I don't see the drives, nothing   It drops to the 'mountroot' 
prompt and when I do ? the only drive I see is the cd drive.


If I boot back with to 'kernel.old' which is 8.1 Release I have no issues.


Any ideas?
