Here's the IDE info I get before it hangs:
hda: DPEA-31080, ATA DISK drive
hda: IRQ probe failed (0)
hdb: DSAA-3720, ATA DISK drive
hdb: IRQ probe failed (0)
hdc: IRQ probe failed (0)
hdc: IRQ probe failed (0)
hdc: no response (status = 0xd1), resetting drive
hdc: no response (status =0x80)

This means the driver is not able to acces the controller for ide1.
That might be a problem with the IO-port addresses.

Also, you might want to try patching your kernel with Andre Hedrick's
multi-platform uniform IDE driver (look at
ftp://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/hedrick/). You _might_
need additional patches to get it to boot; if so, get back to me, and
I'll produce a diff against my working kernel.

I don't know if you read my most recent info, but after disconnecting the
cdrom drive (hdc), I'm getting lots of 
hda: lost interrupt

My dmesg otherwise looks the same - just drop every mention of hdc. If you
think that uniform IDE driver would help with my current problem let me know
and I'll give it a shot.
