FYI. That had no affect for me at all. I was able to pass the kernel the rootdev by: boot -rootdev kernel but then I had a problem when it came time to mount root as read/write. It mounted read-only successfully and then bailed because it couldn't remount as read/write. num_ide_disks=-1 seemed to have absolutely no affect at all.
