Hi.
I think you should use --initrd unless you
make sure you have all you need to boot
built in (and not as a module).

No. It depends on your architecture.
>From what I can tell, you could try to get
started using the debian example
named /boot/config... (complete). Or grab the
.config of a newer kernel (taken from the debian
archive).
