I pulled the config out of the kernel*.src.rpm after 'rpmbuild -bp' (I
only saw the configs in /boot after doing that :P ), and then ran 'make
oldconfig'.

The first time around I forgot to do a modules_install and the ext[234]
modules weren't in the initramfs.  That made it hard for the kernel to
read the /boot and / filesystems. ;)

After fixing that idiocy, it now hangs in early boot - just a blinking
cursor.  I'm speculating it is a problem with support for my old-ish ATI
Radeon Xpress 200 video chipset with a vanilla kernel.  I'll work it out
eventually.

I've got a PVR-150 and HVR-1600 both with the Zilog Z8's on them.  If I
ever get my act together, I'll at least be able to test that and
integrate any changes into the ivtv & cx18 drivers.   I've recently seen
users having trouble on IRC, BTW.

Regards,
Andy
