My guess would be this: ASM1061 SATA IDE Controller does not exist in your malfunctioning kernel. You must replace the old SATA controller module with the one I have noted. If you need these comments as a walkthrough answer let me know.

Mount the boot and root, partition, copy over the networking and enter the chroot. Back up your old kernel and emerge genkernel. Use genkernel to build a ram disk and hardware detection. This only adds about 15 seconds to the total boot. Usse this as a work around until you track down the missing driver. | |
| Sep 3, 2015 at 16:37 | comment | added | Daniel Griscom | Yes: a modern LiveCD boots fine (see details above). It's clear that there's some incompatibility between my SSD and the motherboard, and that updating everything would fix it. For various reasons, though, this would incur an enormous support expense, so I've been hoping to avoid it. | |

Final blast of debug info
|
| Sep 2, 2015 at 19:31 | comment | added | eyoung100 | Before you continue down a rabbit hole, please boot the new Motherboard with a LiveCD, just boot, not build, and let us know if the system completely boots. The Hardware Detection used by the genkernel based kernel build will load the appropriate modules. As a hunch, I have a gut feeling that your kernel is missing some driver for something on your new board. | |

| Sep 2, 2015 at 7:57 | comment | added | Rabin | [long shot] Try updating the BIOS and resetting the BIOS configuration to the default, and changing only what you really need in your case. | |
| Sep 2, 2015 at 7:27 | comment | added | SHW | Please try this: Adding isapnp_reserve_irq=5 to kernel command line while booting. | |

Clarify motherboard transition
|
| Aug 31, 2015 at 6:22 | comment | added | Daniel Griscom | It's an existing Gentoo build that we've been using on our older motherboard (a Jetway NF9D-2550). We're hoping to not have to go back to ground zero, but knowing what's failing would be critical to getting this done. | |
| Aug 30, 2015 at 22:25 | comment | added | eyoung100 | Does this occur when booting the LiveCD, or a completed Handbook install? | |
