SL 10.6.8 won't wait for root device

Hello!

 

I had working 10.6.6 installation on my workstation. Everything worked fine, except some OpenGL apps. So I decided to upgrade to 10.6.8 to get better compatibility & performance.

So, after I updated OS using 10.6.8 Combo Update (downloaded with Software Update), my system load process stops on device detection phase. Kernel log doesn't show a "Waiting on ..." string. It just spins down disk, halts the processor and then does nothing...

 

I'm just desperate on finding what may cause this behavior...

 

My workstation (Lenovo D20) hardware:

Intel Xeon E5645 CPU

6 GB RAM

Intel 5520 Workstation Board (Lenovo version)

nVidia Quadro 600 graphics card

I use Intel ICH SATA port for HDD because OS X doesn't know about Marvell 88SE6480 chip assumed to be used for HDDs in this machine...

 

Please, help...
