Had the same problem. Updated from edgy to feisty (was running a custom
built 2.6.18 kernel, but with initramfs generated with stock edgy
process). After update, system stuck on kernel messages.

Using lilo here (x86-64, for some reason had problems with grub
originally and lilo just works), with LVM over MD-setup.

The fix was to append forcefully the root command line parameter to the kernel.
For some reason lilo didn't honor the root=/dev/mapper/vg0-root (notice only 
one zero here) at all.

Added this into the image=/vmlinuz config:
  append="root=/dev/mapper/vg0-root"

(the ran lilo obviously to update it), then it works properly.

I guess this is not directly related to all of the above problems people
were experiencing, but you might want to try this as well, IFF using
lilo and no other obvious culprits seem to be the problem.
