Well, it seems like a DOWNGRADE, isn't it? If that's the case and not a typo, you may miss some features... If it is a typo, well, when I upgraded from 2.6.15-r1 to 2.6.15-r5 I had a hard time making my eth to work, had to get genkernel default config file and start again from there, because a lot of conflicts, maybe you could try default genkernel config... > order to continue using these tools I had to disable the IEEE802.11 > subsystem and rebuild my kernel.
