the follwing error was shown i.e
red hat version 5.1.19.6 starting version(2.6.32)'
insmod: error inserting '/lib/dm-region-hash.ko': -1 file exists
mount: could not find filesystem '/dev/root'
setuproot: error mounting /proc: no such file or directory
setuproot: error mounting /sys: no such file or directory
switchroot: mount failed: no such file or directory
kernal panic - not syncing: attempted to kill init!
i think that would be sufficient,suggest me to solve this problem or give me another method

You probably only need to
Code:
make && make modules_install
after configuring your kernel
What you didn't do is copy the image to your /boot directory.
You also should add a CONFIG_LOCALVERSION="-custom" during your
step, so it doesn't conflict with your standard kernel
Then after the make modules_install step, you need to copy some more files to /boot and update your menu.lst
Code:
cp System.map /boot/System.map-2.6.32-custom
cp .config /boot/config-2.6.32-custom
cp arch/x86/boot/bzImage /boot/kernel-2.6.32-custom
What I use for the "2.6.32-custom" is whatever is listed on the last line after the make modules_install step
