I made a few tests. First I booted my comp with Ubuntu Live Feisty Fawn, checked modules which are loaded, and interesting ones are: ata_piix, ata_generic, libata, scsi_mod, sg, sr_mod, sd_mod ls /dev/sda* showed: /dev/sda{1,2,3,4}. So I recompiled the kernel with these options (marking all these drivers as a modules, in the previous situation they were modules, as well as compiled directly), and tried to boot. Nothing worked. The same situation appeared: Waiting for root file system... Second, I installed a Debian distribution kernel (linux-image-2.6.22-1-686) and booted from it. It used an old IDE driver, not PATA. So again no success. According to AHCI, my chip is rather not that kind. Ubuntu does not load any AHCI modul. In my previous kernel compilations I tried that option as well. It did not work.
