Kernel errors

[Joel Konkle-Parker <jjk3@msstate.edu>]

I just compiled a fresh 2.2.20 kernel and rebooted into it for the first 
time. During the boot, the kernel went into an endless cycle of the same 
error message, something to the effect of "cannot modprobe <switch> 
<switch> <switch> binfmt###c; error=8". That's from memory, so I forget 
what the switches are, and 'modprobe' could have been "cannot insert 
module". I also can't remember the exact name, I just know it started 
with binfmt<number>c. The error code is correct.

Did I set a configuration setting wrong?

Upon seeing 'binfmt' in the error, I remember I set up the kernel to use 
MISC binaries, and unset ELF and JAVA binaries. But the help said I 
could do that...
