My concern is that I'll run into the same problem that the kernel that I compile does not boot.. the earlier "vanilla" 2.6.6 kernel that built fine did not boot. It stopped after the line that ended with "prom_init" with the white background (the screen immediately after the "boot:" prompt screen). Any ideas on why this happens and/or ways to resolve it? I will try compiling with the pmdisk patch today evening...

It is probably just a problem of .config. Just use the
config-2.6.6-powerpc for now, and modify it as you need.
