Fedora 6 custom kernel

[monty19@ hotmail.com]

You may need to make a custom initrd file with the driver you compiled set 
to preload.

I'm not sure what your driver module is called, but here is a basic example 
of how you would do so:

mkinitrd --preload=<driver> /boot/<image name> <kernel version>

This will make sure that the driver is loaded before the kernel tries to 
mount your filesystem.  I have had to do this in the passed with my promise 
sata raid controller in my laptop, as well as several of the usb related 
drivers to boot off a USB disc.  Otherwise the error is the same as what you 
are getting.

Don't forget to make sure the initrd line for your kernel in grub.conf 
matches <image name>.
