txs for the feeback:-) I got the kernel up and running in the end. I became confused after the "make modules_install" stage as the next stage, "make install", was not recommended in the how-to from kernel.org. It recommended using mkinitrd and copying the bzImage, config and other things to the /boot directory. I got into a horrible mess, having to boot the kernel manually in command line etc;
Greg Bell made a posting saying that he used "make install" and everything went OK. I tried it and it worked, plus it modified my grub.conf correctly. I still do not understand why the how-to did not recommend "make install". My goal was to recompile the kernel to include wlan modules so that I could get my SMC2632Wv3 card up and running - kernel recompile was a means to an end, but txs to the advice from this site I learnt one hell of a lot:-). I managed to get my wlan card going so my next mission is acpi. Any thoughts on that?
