1 I did some digging on the kernel caching and this is definately the problem. Once I fixed that the build went perfectly, gensplash, auto login the works. I now have a completely functional base system running gnome. I booted it on my home system when I got back from work last night, it detected all of my hardware, configured my video and networking. I was up and able to surf the net no problem. Now I need to look at speading up the load. My image is 460 some megs and takes a bit of time to load the tmpfs. I suppose I could switch from Gnome to XFCE2 and that would really help. I appreciate the help Chris and Andrew have given me. Cheers and have a great weekend!

35 kerncache is useless in catalyst-1.x unless you're just building a basic kernel
36 with nothing external (external modules, splash, etc.). Remove 'kerncache' from
37 'options' in your /etc/catalyst/catalyst.conf.
