Yes, it has worked, thank you Jim.
It's astonishing: the crucial part was to reinstall the kernel. First I
copied your HOOKS array and made a "mkinitcpio -g kernel26", but the
kernel panic was still there.
I am wondering, what is different between "mkinitcpio -g kernel26"
and these two lines from the kernel26.install script:
/sbin/mkinitcpio -k $KERNEL_VERSION -g /boot/kernel26.img
/sbin/mkinitcpio -c /boot/mkinitcpio-kernel26.conf -k $KERNEL_VERSION
-g /boot /kernel26-fallback.img
