Re: 2.6.19 kernel won't boot due to "VolGroup00" not found

I was able to eventually fix this problem.
Here is what I did

1) Did not use the kernel config file from the previous kernel (.config).
    Using make oldconfig may have been the problem
    Instead, I did this:
    make clean
    make mrproper
    make menuconfig
       select only the options I need
       save config
2) ran:
    make
    make modules_install
    make install
       ( NOTE: be sure to use 'make install' as it seems to create the proper initrd file )

    I was not using 'make install' before.  I think this may have been the actual fix as
    it seems to setup the initial ram disk properly.

I seem to be having issues booting the 2.6.19 kernel from kernel.org.
I have FC-6 installed and wanted to upgrade the kernel from kernel.org
(I have done this many times before)
When I go to boot my newly built kernel, I get a kernel panic due to:

Volume Group "VolGroup00" not found

When I built the kernel, I used my current kernel .config file (2.6.18 from fc6) by doing a 'make oldconfig'.

Has anyone successfully upgraded to 2.6.19 kernel from kernel.org on FC6 ???

Thank you.
