I forgot to mention the error I get when i try to boot the newly compiled kernel.

    VFS: Cannot open root device "sdb3" on 08:13
    Please append a correct "root=" boot option
    Kernel panic: VFS: Unable to mount root from 08:13

Hi,

I downloaded all the supported kernels from kernel.org
linux-2.218 - > linux-2.4.26

Then following the "Click Router Installation" I:
1. unpack the src to /usr/src/linux 
2. apply the appropriate patch
3. make menuconfig, and save the configuration (also tried xcopnfig)
4. make dep
5. make bzImage
6. make install
7. make modules
8. make modules_install
...reboot

Then it is "Redhat presents NT blue 2, the return of the blue screen of death" 
:**(

It won't boot. After a few weeks and nearly exhausting all possible combinations of free linux/kernel, I have reached a rather obviouse conclusion. I'm an idiot. Can you help, please?
