I started off using the 2.6.25 .config below, 2.6.25-git "make oldconfig", changed a few options like SATA_SFF and SATA_PMP.
barrabas:/usr/src/linux-2.6.25 # grep SFF .config CONFIG_BLK_DEV_IDEDMA_SFF=y barrabas:/usr/src/linux-2.6.25 # grep SATA .config # CONFIG_BLK_DEV_IDE_SATA is not set CONFIG_SATA_AHCI=m CONFIG_SATA_SVW=m CONFIG_SATA_MV=m CONFIG_SATA_NV=m CONFIG_SATA_QSTOR=m CONFIG_SATA_PROMISE=m CONFIG_SATA_SX4=m CONFIG_SATA_SIL=m CONFIG_SATA_SIL24=m CONFIG_SATA_SIS=m CONFIG_SATA_ULI=m CONFIG_SATA_VIA=m CONFIG_SATA_VITESSE=m CONFIG_SATA_INIC162X=m
