That's the 3rd IDE channel (hde/hdf).  Do you have 3 IDE channels?

That's the 4th IDE channel.  Sounds like you built something into the
kernel that you shouldn't have.

Those are SCSI drives (sda etc).

Sound devices (/dev/mixer etc)

/dev/rtc - Real time clock support, which you didn't built properly, i'm
guessing.

Considering how about 50% of the lines are commented out, why don't you
remove them altogether?  Also, just because you don't use sound or SCSI,
doesn't mean that you didn't say Y to stuff that requires them in the
kernel config.
