Ahoy!
Two things that jump to mind are weirdness with Apple hardware (not sure
this is the case or not) but I recall that in Bootcamp mode the EFI displays
IDE devices instead of SATA in some cases. I remember Theo(?) mentioning
this about a MacBookAir some time ago.
The other is if you've modified the kernel previously with config(8), as
you've said you copied it over from another machine.
Take care,
