Yes, you are missing (did not compile) these modules. It can't see the cdrom because you don't have any ide drivers loaded. Use "make allmodconfig" or better yet just use a distro installer with a 2.6 kernel. This is also off-topic as this list is for people learning to write Linux kernel code. -- Kernelnewbies: Help each other learn about the Linux kernel.
