If it says 'busybox', it's obviously able to boot. That's nothing inside the kernel, that's a program, loaded from the initrd.

My guess is you didn't include the correct disk drivers, or built your disk drivers in as modules <M> instead of building them right into the kernel <*>. Try selecting the same disk controller drivers in your kernel as in the generic one. Make sure AHCI at the very least is built in <*>, hundreds of boards use that for SATA.

Though another thought occurs to me.

You are using your own initrd, yes? Not just the one that came with your old kernel? One of the main ideas of an initrd is the ability to load disk controller drivers as modules(which is otherwise a big fat catch-22), and the modules in the other kernel's initrd flagrantly won't be modules for your kernel.

If possible I'd avoid using an initrd at all. Just build your disk controller drivers right in, and give root=/dev/sda6
