Phenom 9550, 4G ram, asus m2n-sli deluxe mobo, all sata drives (4 + optical
burner)

I have now built 35-rc4 4 times, the last 2 with

2.6.31-12-mdv.config & make oldconfig (lots of accepts), & build

And a working .config from 2.6.35-rc3 + make oldconfig (no changes reported)
& build.

Both fail at the attached image point booting from a grub2 menu on a
different drive that has been working with rc3 for quite a few boots but its
all bitchy this morning so is booted to the mdv 2.6.31-12 kernel above ATM.

Last .config also attached.

What do I need to do here?

That does sound bizarre. You have some weird initrd dependency on the
kernel doing something, but it isn't clear to me what that might be.
Shrug.

Not being able to mount /dev and /sys feels like they simply weren't
compiled in. But your config suggests otherwise.

I would change the second line below to be enabled:

CONFIG_DEVTMPFS=y
# CONFIG_DEVTMPFS_MOUNT is not set

and give that a shot.

That is such a truly evil option. *shiver*
