I also had problem with the 2.6 kernel on my VAIO using kernel image 686 or after compiling the sources. :-(
It sayd that the kernel could not find the partition, but I compiled all the filesystems directly (not as module)
Yesterday I downloaded the latest 2.6.4 from kernel.org and olá booting with no problem. ;-)
I choose 2.6 because of ACPI so ACPI=off is not an option.
HTH,
Adib.

Sorry. I'll tell you all I can think to tell.
Here is my lilo.conf (pertinent parts):
image=/boot/vmlinuz-2.6.3-1-686 label=2.6.0 read-only initrd=/boot/initrd.img-2.6.3-1-686
Both /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.3-1-686 and /boot/initrd.img-2.6.3-1-686 exist.
running lilo gives me this:
Warning: '/proc/partitions' does not match '/dev' directory structure. Name change: '/dev/ide/host0/bus0/target0/lun0/disc' -> '/dev/hda' Added 2.4.24 * Added 2.6.0
As you can see I am currently running 2.4.24. It boots without any
problems. Both are the apt-gettable official debian binary packages.
I have tried the option "acpi=off." I wrote this:
2.6.0 "acpi=off"
It still did "Uncompressing kernel.... bootting Linux kernel."
And then stops.
Thank you,
David

How? Are you installing binary images or building from kernel sources? Of course, why are you going to 2.6.x at all?
Do you mention initrd.img in your lilo|grub config?
Have you tried the various "acpi=off" boot parameters?
