Kernel boot problems


Hello everyone,


I just recompiled my own custon kernel. Everything was going fine. The boot images and files all compiled perfectly. Now when i try and boot into my custon kernel it just comes up to this blank screen with an "X" as the pointer.

Any help and suggestions would be appreciated

You mean a crosshatch pattern with a big black X? If so that's X without anything running in it, what normally comes up? GDM? KDM?

How do you recompile images?

What usually comes up?
