Kernel problems

[Robert Martinovic <tzenkethi@yahoo.com>]

I seem to be having a problem in the way i compile a
kernel. I do the following:

make xconfig
make dep
make-kpkg clean
make-kpkg --revision=custom.1.X. kernel_image
dpkg -i kernel-image-alpha-XXX.deb

Everything seems to go ok, but when i boot from SRM:
b dka100 -fi vmlinuz
It starts to boot and then:
'kernel panic' and 'VFS unable to mount root
filesystem ..."

Any suggestions on what i'm doing wrong.
