Yes I did have an initrd.
And I went as far as copying the initrd file from a working system with identical hardware so that I could be sure that the correct needed modules were being loaded.
The DMESG's showed that modules were being loaded successfully and that the kernel was able to see the SCSI disk and the partitions, and I double checked the grub.conf and the labels on the partitions.
I don't know why it wasn't working. Unfortunately I'll never find out. Because I had to get this done I instead did a minimal new install and then rsync'd over the working directories. (not as clean as I would have liked. but it worked).
