ok-
taking these suggestions (and I concur, grub is a lot easier) I still
have the same problem with the kernel panic. / is on /dev/hda1 swap
on /dev/hda2; grub recognizes the new kernel and it is an option on
the menu. I went back and re-verifed that ext2 and ext3 filesystems
are configured into the kernel and *NOT* as modules. I did a make
clean and a make-dpkg clean and recompiled and re-installed the new
kernel. No compilation errors, no installation errors, but still the
same can't mount root fs error.
One thing I'm confused on is the ide drivers in the 2.6 kernel.
While
reading the help under ATA, etc. it states that I should be using the
scsi driver for ide drives unless I have legacy equipment (which I
don't, Vision computers x86 based, new in the last 2 weeks), but
under
the scsi drivers section it asks for a specific driver and does not
list anything remotely close to what i've got.
So, I'm at a logjam.
Thanks for the help

Ok-
I ended up giving up on this for the moment since I need to get this
machine deployed so I went with the kernel-image package from
debian.org. This, of course, worked perfectly and loaded up in no time
and booted the first time out of the blocks. This is great but I'd
still like to figure out what I was doing wrong with my home-compliled
kernel. Is there a way to compare the two kernels to see which module/s
the packaged kernel has installed that I missed in my kernel? Thanks
again for the help
