I'm not sure whether this is causing your problem, but the problem we need to solve is that the system isn't booting with the squeeze kernel. Based on my other messages in this thread, e.g., [1], I'm now wondering whether the appropriate ums-* kernel module for your USB enclosure isn't being installed in your initramfs, so the root file system never becomes available. To test this idea, try adding all the ums-* modules to /etc/initramfs-tools/modules, i.e., ums-alauda ums-cypress ums-datafab ... Then rebuild the initramfs for squeeze. The command will be something like sudo update-initramfs -k 2.6.32-5-ixp4xx -u and reboot. If it fails, then you can recover by reinstalling your lenny imiage again.
