Corey,

Typically if you cannot find the root filesystem, it's because you do
not have the SCSI/SATA/IDE
driver loaded. Did you do a makeoldconfig? Also did you compile some
of those drivers as modules?
If so, did you regenerate the initrd and updated GRUB config file correctly?

I am having some issues with 2.6.26-rc1 myself. Cannot get my Tigon3
to get configured properly
on my Ubuntu gutsy system.
