Fake/BIOS RAID without initrd

Hello, I've installed archlinux on fake raid0 volume that create by BIOS raid setup menu.
I've followed WIKI guide and everything works perfectly:
http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Ins … _Fake-RAID

Now, I want to make a new kernel 2.6.32-rc8 without initrd
and I've mark these options to [*], although I am not sure which options are MUST needed

Device Drivers  --->
    <*> Serial ATA (prod) and Parallel ATA (experimental) drivers  --->
        <*>   AHCI SATA support  (I am not sure this option is needed or not)
    [*] Multiple devices driver support (RAID and LVM)  --->
        <*>   RAID support (I am not sure this option is needed or not)
        [*]     Autodetect RAID arrays during kernel boot (I am not sure this option is needed or not)
        <*>     RAID-0 (striping) mode (I am not sure this option is needed or not)
        <*>   Device mapper support

and my grub menu.lst is here:

title Arch Linux New
    root (hd0,4)
    kernel /bzImage root=/dev/mapper/isw_dbhhaffccd_Volume0p6 ro

My partition mount usage is:

/dev/mapper/isw_dbhhaffccd_Volume0p5  ->  ext3, /boot
/dev/mapper/isw_dbhhaffccd_Volume0p5  ->  ext4, /

and I also mark ext3 and ext4 to [*] in kernel config.
But when I reboot to try this new kenrel, It failed to boot and prompt error message as follow picture:

Could give me some advices to choose which options are must needed to let me boot RAID0 properly?
Thanks in advanced.
