I'm not supprised it paniced, I would. You've built ide support as a
module. You can't load modules until you've mounted something as / (set
to /dev/hda8 in this case), and you need a module to do that.

Attempt to find our root filesystem on 0x03:0x08 (/dev/hda8).
No driver, so request_mod() for it.

request_mod sanity check failed (/ not mounted), complain we can't load
modules yet.

> VFS: Cannot open root device 03:08

still no driver for rootfs dev, can't usfully continue.

> Kernel panic: VFS: Unable to mount root fs on 03:08

so panic and stop here (actually for(;;) {} loop).
