Just keep in mind these things:
1.) To prevent the "blank screen" that most new 2.6 kernel users often get on their first build, make sure that the following options are enabled:
# Graphics support
#
CONFIG_FB=y
CONFIG_FB_VESA=y
CONFIG_VIDEO_SELECT=y
#
# Console display driver support
#
CONFIG_VGA_CONSOLE=y
CONFIG_DUMMY_CONSOLE=y
CONFIG_FRAMEBUFFER_CONSOLE=y
CONFIG_PCI_CONSOLE=y
CONFIG_FONT_8x8=y
CONFIG_FONT_8x16=y
#
# Logo configuration
#
CONFIG_LOGO=y
CONFIG_LOGO_LINUX_MONO=y
CONFIG_LOGO_LINUX_VGA16=y
CONFIG_LOGO_LINUX_CLUT224=y
Note: these settings are not default in 2.6 and often do not carry-over properly from the 2.4.22 config file and must be double-checked!

Did you try that reply? (Posted by Jymbo but can't figure out how quote works on vbb =/)
I had the same problem with Slack 10 and 2.6.7, and found that I had to manually add those to my conf file but after following that, I got rid of the blank screen.
