> The default kernel configuration has the EXT2 compiled in, EXT3 and
ATA/ATAPI/SCSI drivers compiled as modules. I turned on EXT3 (used as my
root fs) so that it is compiled into the kernel and it still doesn't boot.
Ok that's a start, did you run make-kpkg clean before recompiling and
give it a different name/version?
There are many selection of ATA/ATAPI PCI IDE drivers and its various
parameters (DMA and so on). All of the drivers are compiled as modules with
PCI interrupt sharing and PCI DMA turned on.
That's correct and they usually all get loaded as permanent modules with
a standard kernel via the initrd.
Does this mean that I have to
boot up the system with stock kernel, check the dmesg to see which driver
is used and run `make xconfig` to compile that driver into the kernel..?
Thanks & Regards,

you could just try lspci -vv to see if you can identify the module
required for ide. if not post to the list.
