Indeed, I can boot kernel 2.6.20-1.2962.fc7, which really is 2.6.21-rc2, provided I will use 'acpi=off irqpoll'. Anything else and a boot silently dies if 'acpi=off' is skipped or is not finding disk if 'irqpoll' is missing. Somehow 2.6.19 is booting on the same hardware without "valliant efforts"; OTOH 'ahci' driver was not used there.
