Binary package hint: linux-source-2.6.20

After an update have installed kernel 2.6.20-12, the system rebooted but the usplash progress bar never updates beyond 1%. Flicking around the consoles eventually showed the error message:

  [udevd]: abnormal exit running '/sbin/modprobe'

or similar. Eventually after and SysRq-s to sync (there's no root filesystem yet), I was handed the initramfs busybox shell.

Is the kernel failing to find my IDE controller (ahci)?
