Corey, I have booted 2.6.27-rc2 but only on x86-64 which is the system I have handy. To figure out what is broken you need to run a diff between generic 2.6.27-rc2 and the perfmon tree. Please report any difference not related to perfmon. Lots of files have changed since 2.6.26 and it is possible I missed something.
