2.6.25-git1/2 not seeing /dev/sda1 (XFS root) or /dev/sda2 (swap)partitions on a SATA drive

[Sid Boyce]

2.6.25 x86_64 boots fine as does -git1/2 boxes using reiserfs and ext3. 
With xfs it can't find these and drops into a shell.
/dev/disk/by-id/scsi-SATA_WDC_WD5000AAKS-_WD-WCAS85018679-part2 swap 
             swap       defaults              0 0
/dev/disk/by-id/scsi-SATA_WDC_WD5000AAKS-_WD-WCAS85018679-part1 / 
             xfs        defaults              1 1

From my .config
CONFIG_XFS_FS=m
CONFIG_XFS_QUOTA=y
CONFIG_XFS_POSIX_ACL=y
CONFIG_XFS_RT=y

The other boxes are configure pretty much the same, but I can diff the 
.config's if required.
