I think you will have to re-configure your kernel. The SATA drivers have
moved into another section, have a look at the "Device
Drivers" -> "Serial ATA" section. If kernel configuration is new to you,
you can also boot from a knoppix live cd, and get the kernel config
from /proc/config.gz.
Or install an older kernel, 2.6.24-r8 is still in portage. It is outdated,
but at least your old .config (assuming you still have it, either on your
hard desk or in /proc/config.gz) would probably work.
