Hi and thanks for answering.
2.6.23-rc1 boots if I comment out these two lines. The drive does have the two original dell special partitions that were on it when I received the computer (sda1 and sda3).
Here is some info I could gather about the disk. Let me know if you need anything else.
Boot log:
ata1: SATA link up 1.5 Gbps (SStatus 113 SControl 300)^M

Partition table entries are not in disk order
