Dale,

If you've never gotten genkernel to work, you should try this little
script that I've used for the past few years. I put it in /usr/src/gk
and I change into whatever /usr/src/kernel directory I'm going to
compile. Then, I just call "../gk all" and off it goes. Of course, if
you use lilo, it's a different story because I jumped out of the lilo
life raft years ago and managed to swim to shore.

Here's gk. Tweak to your environment:

CFLAGS="-O2 -march=barcelona -pipe" \
genkernel --lvm --menuconfig --save-config --oldconfig \
--bootloader=grub --install --symlink --kerneldir=$PWD \
--makeopts="-s -j4" "$@"
