The .config between -rc1 and -rc2 are the same (I always keep the
same .config). It found the disks in -rc2 (sda - ata_piix driver), but
can't find "LABEL=/" because that's what the initrd is supposed to
mount. I've tried mounting /dev/sda6 (which is my root) directly, but
that doesn't help either.

I'll generate the diff for you in a bit.
