vmware MEPIS, problem upgrading kernel

Hi,

I'm trying to upgrade the MEPIS kernel to 2.4.30. This is all under a vmware virtual machine. I have the default 2.4.29 running fine, but when I compile and and try to boot from 2.4.30 I get the following:

Code:

kmod: failed to exec /sbin/modprobe -k -s scsi_hostadapter errno=2

Then the kernel panics. Why ain't that working? I did make sure to do "make dep && make bzImage modules modules_install"

Thanks for any help!

update: scsi support is supposed to be compiled in according to what i selected in the menuconfig, so i tried disabling loadable module support and that made the modprobe errors go but the kernel still panics when trying to load the filesystem
