You can try the following
Put the hard disk back to the old server, and try installing the latest kernel (manually) for etch (2.6.24) from http://www.debian.org/releases/etch/debian-installer/etchnhalf and it should create a new initramfs image for the new kernel. Now, put the hard disk in the new server and see it if boots properly after upgrading the kernel. S.
