kernel: 2.6.16-ck12 #3 PREEMPT  (ck-sources)
sys-apps/baselayout-1.11.15-r3  USE="static unicode -bootstrap -build"

I use the same kernel on my desktop and never had this problem.However I
have to say there's a big difference between the desktop and the
problematic PC. While the PC has a plain setup - only 1 hdd with only 1
partition (hda1), the desktop has its root on a 2-disk software raid0.
So the desktop mounts /dev/md0 preliminary, then xfs recovery takes
place if needed, and "switchroot /sysroot" is made at the end.

Hmmmm...witting this email I think an idea occurred to me...:)

What stops me make the same way of booting on the problematic PC? Well,
this would be a workaround again while I prefer a straight solution.
