FYI -- the absence of the SIS5513 module seems to be breaking those of us with SiS 5513 IDE controllers. I went a little outside the purely Ubuntu way of doing things, but not too far.
I downloaded the latest 2.6.22.12 version from the linux kernel archives. Then I took my Ubuntu config file, and mostly updated just the one line (also updated the kernel version tag, but nothing else). Then I recompiled the kernel.
My system now boots directly. The original poster does not list his IDE controller, so I cannot tell if this is the same problem -- but seems to fix SiS 5513 controllers.
