Did you try booting with init=/bin/bash, i.e. bypassing all initscripts? 
Also, try booting w/o an initrd image if you can, thus bypassing all the 
early boot magic.

Shot in the dark: if it worked with 2.6.39 but not with 3.x and the 
initscript have not changed, maybe some initscript went mad when it 
could not parse the new kernel version number?

Christian.
