Boot the working kernel and dump the dmesg output for us.  I'm not
looking for errors with the point release kernel relating to the boot
problem.  I'm looking for exactly what hardware we're dealing with and
how it's connected to the system.  It is atypical for a kernel point
release to bork an ATA or SCSI controller driver to the point the system
won't load.  Thus I'm guessing there is something 'unique' about your
setup.  dmesg should tell me that, as well as other needed information.

Cheers,
