After using genkernel 3.0.1beta6 with menuconfig and compiling ide as a module, genkernel did include ide-core not included neither ide-disk nor ide-detect modules in the initrd. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. 2. 3.
well, there were some bugs that are fixed in _beta9 you're going to need to make sure you add your modules to modules_load inside your /usr/share/genkernel/${ARCH} file to make sure genkernel knows to copy them to the initrd and load them!
I updated to beta9 and tried without succes. It is unclear how to add ide modules in modules_load. I tried adding a IDE_MODULES variable and modify gen_moddeps.sh gen_initrd.sh and initrd.defaults. I probably forgot something in the script. It will probably be easier for you to see what I forgot diff -Nru /usr/share/genkernel/gen_initrd.sh /home/okapi/genkernel/gen_initrd.sh--- /usr/share/genkernel/gen_initrd.sh 2004-01-30 14:25:51.000000000 -0500 +++ /home/okapi/genkernel/gen_initrd.sh 2004-01-30 14:24:57.000000000 -0500 @@ -117,6 +117,7 @@ cp -ax --parents /lib/modules/${KV}/modules* ${TEMP}/initrd-temp mkdir -p "${TEMP}/initrd-temp/etc/modules" + print_list ${IDE_MODULES} > "${TEMP}/initrd-temp/etc/modules/ide" print_list ${SCSI_MODULES} > "${TEMP}/initrd-temp/etc/modules/scsi" print_list ${FIREWIRE_MODULES} > "${TEMP}/initrd-temp/etc/modules/firewire" print_list ${ATARAID_MODULES} > "${TEMP}/initrd-temp/etc/modules/ataraid" diff -Nru /usr/share/genkernel/gen_moddeps.sh /home/okapi/genkernel/gen_moddeps.sh --- /usr/share/genkernel/gen_moddeps.sh 2004-01-30 14:25:51.000000000 -0500 +++ /home/okapi/genkernel/gen_moddeps.sh 2004-01-30 14:24:57.000000000 -0500 @@ -52,6 +52,7 @@ gen_dep_list() { rm -f ${TEMP}/moddeps > /dev/null + gen_deps ${IDE_MODULES} gen_deps ${SCSI_MODULES} gen_deps ${FIREWIRE_MODULES} gen_deps ${ATARAID_MODULES} diff -Nru /usr/share/genkernel/generic/initrd.defaults /home/okapi/genkernel/generic/initrd.defaults --- /usr/share/genkernel/generic/initrd.defaults 2004-01-30 14:25:51.000000000 -0500 +++ /home/okapi/genkernel/generic/initrd.defaults 2004-01-30 14:24:57.000000000 -0500 @@ -10,7 +10,7 @@ KMINOR=`echo $KV | cut -f2 -d.` KVER="${KMAJOR}.${KMINOR}" MISCOPTS="cdcache idebug detect" -HWOPTS="scsi firewire ataraid pcmcia usb" +HWOPTS="ide scsi firewire ataraid pcmcia usb" MY_HWOPTS="usb firewire" QUIET=1 ROOT_LINKS="bin sbin lib lib64 boot usr opt" diff -Nru /usr/share/genkernel/x86/modules_load /home/okapi/genkernel/x86/modules_load --- /usr/share/genkernel/x86/modules_load 2004-01-30 14:25:51.000000000 -0500 +++ /home/okapi/genkernel/x86/modules_load 2004-01-30 14:24:58.000000000 -0500 @@ -1,3 +1,10 @@ +IDE_MODULES="ide ide-io ide-iops ide-probe ide-disk \ +aec62xx alim15x3 amd74xx \ +cmd64x cs5530 cy82c693 hpt34x ns87415 \ +opti621 pdc202xx_new pdc202xx_old piix \ +rz1000 sc1200 serverworks siimage sis5513 \ +slc90e66 triflex trm290 via82cxxx" + SCSI_MODULES="sd_mod sg sr_mod \ aic7xxx aic7xxx_old BusLogic \ ncr53c8xx NCR53c406a \
All the requier modules get into the initrd but they are not loaded. So the kernel panic since it is unable to mount /.

It seems that the problem comes from the /lib/module/2.6.1-gentoo/kernel/drivers/ide which has subdirectories (legacy/ pci/) in it. All other subsystems have their modules located in the same directory.
