Gave:

NET4: Unix domain sockets 1.0/SMP for Linux NET4.0.
ext2
VFS: Cannot open root device "302" or 03:02
Please append a correct "root=" boot option
Kernel panic: VFS: Unable to mount root fs on 03:02

Since I've used "make oldconfig" and:

loke:loke:/usr/src/test$ diff my-2.5.6-pre2-.config my-2.5.6-pre3-.config 
288d287
< CONFIG_IDE_TASK_IOCTL=y
291c290
< # IDE chipset support/bugfixes
---
> # IDE chipset support
301d299
< # CONFIG_BLK_DEV_IDEDMA_FORCED is not set

only show enforced differences, I could boot into 2.5.6-pre2 tonight (about 6 hours from now) and dump whatever info you need - if it is deemed necessary. Otherwise I'll just enjoy the -ac series until a -preX turns up that is bootable.
