Hi Jim,
Then try the followings:
1. You may try some value in rootdelay, say 10
2. when drop to initramfs prompt again, type "ls /dev" and "ls /dev/sda1" to
see if the file exist.
3. Do not use initramfs. Edit /boot/grub/menu.lst or at grub prompt,
a. delete "initrd /initrd.img" line
b. change root=/dev/sda1 to explicitly specify the disk device.

In initramfs prompt, please type "cat /proc/partitions". This will
show if the kernel could be able to detect your drive or not. If not,
please send the "dmesg" and "lspci -v" output to the list.
Also please read section 6.4 of README. Try adding "ide=nodma
all_generic_ide" to kernel boot parameters to if it could help.
Please note that Voyage Linux kernel is trimmed down many modules that
some ide drivers are not included.
