It seems like you can boot with the new kernel (vmlinuz-2.6.22-gentoo-r6), right?
If you are using syslog-ng, the default behavour would make kernel error appears in /var/log/message.

No i had to switch back to r5.
Couldnt find the kernel panic line in message, not even with ctrl +w "panic" so i had to boot with the r6 kernel again and write it down, heh.
| Code: |
VFS: Cannot open root device "<NULL>" or unknown-block(8,3)
Please append a correct "root=" boot option; here are the available partitions: 0300 4194302 hda driver: ide-cdrom
Kernel panic - not syncing : VFS : Unable to mount root fs on unknown-block(8,3)

Do you have the IDE chipset driver, and the filesystem compiled into the kernel? Unless you are using initrd image, you would probably need to have all neccessary drivers for the boot device compiled-in instead of loaded as module.
The changes between r5 and r6 should not be significiant, so I doubt the device number will change. Anyway, you should check your kernel config. lspci -v will show you the chipsets of your computer if you are unsure.

filesystem compiled into the kernel? yes.
and not sure about the ide driver, but this is what comes out of lspci -v

Cool, I have the same chipset on my server.
Do you have the following selected (not module) in menuconfig?
| Code: | Device Drivers ---> Serial ATA (prod) and Parallel ATA (experimental) drivers --->
<*> ATA device support
<*> NVIDIA SATA support
|
Oh, and I just realized the grub.conf is incomplete. You need to specify your root as kernel option..
| Code: |
default 0
timeout 30
splashimage=(hd0,0)/grub/black.xpm.gz
title Gentoo (08-30-2007-00)
root (hd0,0)
kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.22-gentoo-r6 root=/dev/sda3 udev lacpi
boot

Nice 
I have the NVIDIA SATA support enabled, but there is no ATA device support there 
ok i will try to change the .grub.conf file. |

Hmz.Tried to add it, but i still get kernel panic.Now i get:
| Code: |
Root-NFS: No NFS server available, giving up.
Vfs. Unable to mount root fs via NFS, trying floppy.
VFS: Insert root floppy and press enter.
VFS: Cannot open root device "sda3" or unknown-block(2,0)
|
It really doesnt want vmlinuz  |

NFS server? That's strange. Are you using NFS? Does making NFS server a module help?
On the other hand, have you tried other device? such as root=/dev/sdb3 or /dev/hda3? In the worst case scenerio, you may try genkernel instead.

The freezing stopped after i upgraded the graphic card driver @ NVIDIA  and when i think about it...when it comes to the "invalid module format" error i remember i got the same error with ndiswrapper once.I fixed it by removing the file and then add it again.Perhaps that will work here too?
and eeew! i tried to --unmerge gspca, but it cant find it.And when i try to emerge it again its masked.Yes i am root. |

If gspca is masked by (-*), it probably meant it is tested that it isn't really properly. If it is just masked by ~*, it is probably just not tested. However, you can still emerge the package by adding an entry to /etc/portage/package.unmask and /etc/portage/package.keywords.
Please refer to the wiki and handbook for more information:
http://gentoo-wiki.com/TIP_package.keywords
