I just upgraded to 2.6.28 from testing and it panics on reboot trying to mount the root partition which is on ext4dev. Mkinitcpio _did_ give warnings about "ext4dev module not found", but I ignored it because I thought ext4 is now compiled in.
Tried already:
rootfstype=ext4 (instead of ext4dev)
replace ext4dev with ext4 in fstab (an uneducated guess, I know...)
Can I salvage my system somehow or is it reinstall time?
How should I have done it in the first place?
If this is a (possibly packaging) bug, please someone file it for me. Using elinks gives me nystagmus in five minutes.

Solved. It turns out that this whole fallback thing is there for a reason Booted with fallback image, reinstalled kernel, edited grub.cfg to make rootfstype=ext4 permanent, now boots like charm.
