Yep pretty much identical, I must have made a mistake in the config stage, probably forgot to compile reiserfs into the kernel.
I will try again, but my track record is one correct kernel compilation since redhat 5.2, so my chances are not good.
There must be an easier way. I have always thought that if distos like knoppix can auto detect and configure all your hardware, then it must be possible for the same auto detect system to create a unique kernel for your hardware, then again I'm just a user not a programmer, I suppose the downside would be that you would have to recompile every time you added a bit of hardware, but then again you sometimes have to anyway.
