I'm thinking a misconfigured grub menu.lst I think this is what I saw when I was having trouble booting from an onboard SATA controller with drives present on a 3ware RAID controller. Basically, it was mixing up the order of hard drives between the installer's kernel and device mapping and the actual Arch kernel and udev mapping. I would try playing with the root option in the menu.lst, and you may even have a problem in the fstab.
Yes, I top replied. Live with it.
