So, it might be the hardware support. You might have the good support
for one of your computers, but not for the other (IDE chipset, SCSI
chipset, ...) Are you sure you compiled all the hardware support for
your second computer ? Is it in module or in the kernel itself ?
In the boot messages before the panic, can you see your hard drives
and their partitions recognized by the kernel ?
