I did some googling. Seriously grasping at straws here. Do you have
SMP enabled? If so, do you really have a multiprocessor or multicore
machine? I ask beause I did find where someone else had SMP enabled and
it shouldn't have been. I noticed it shows it is enabled in the config
you posted earlier. Also, make sure you have the correct CPU selected
too. I think you do tho from what I saw in the config. Also make sure
you have the correct partitions in fstab too. I know I'm bad to mix
those up sometimes or just leave out a "/" mark.
Another thought, are you sure that the drive partitions are sda and not
hda? I still use the old drivers and mine are hda but some are using
the new drivers which are sda. Just wanting to make certain. Grasping
at one more straw.
I'll do some more thinking and put a little more wear and tear on google.

Thanks again for your suggestion! I tried to switch off SMP and recompiled the
kernel, but the problem persists. I'm sure I'm using the newer driver so I think
the partitions should be called sda.
On the other hand, if I can ever succeed in eliminating the irq problem with
genkernel, I would be very happy too! It's really frustrating sometimes...

I'm not sure what else to try at the moment. I see some others have
joined in tho so maybe they will have some ideas.
As I pointed out to someone in another thread, sometimes genkernel works
and sometimes it doesn't. Once you get a working kernel, updating will
be easy enough.
I'm thinking.
