I have been using a 2.6.7 kernel for months quite happily. Recently I
decided to upgrade to 2.6.11-r9 but I am having problems. When booting
it stalls with

VFS: Cannot open root device "2105" or unknown block

Googling around I can see its a common problem and I have tried the
following without success:

1. Disable devfs
2. Checked I have via sata in the kernel (via sata board with sata hard drive)
3. Checked I have IDE enabled
4. Checked I have ext3 extensions the same as on 2.6.7 kernel
5. Check LILO is correct

I am running out of ideas??

Any help welcome

PS: The old 2.6.7 kernel still works fine.
