I mis-read your inquiry.  My response was with regard to my current 
bootable system.  As for my recent attempts:

grub

I've tried 2.6.28 and currently trying 2.6.30

One I picked up off the internet from a guy who said it works with 2.6.30

I tried the same ones that successfully boot my RHEL kernel.  I then 
tried various others that I found via google, but no joy yet:

My latest attempt included:

libata.atapi_enabled=1 combined_mode=ide

yes.

Only the RHEL kernels.  Never anything I've attempted to build from source.
