thanks for the link, i read up on that and the kernel compile went (i
think) successfully, i installed it but when i rebooted, i get a message
saying kernel panic, and that i should append the proper root= . this
doesn't make sense to me 'cause i have root=/dev/hda3 in lilo.conf and the
other kernels (2.4.18-bf2.4 and 2.4.18-k7) boot up fine. 

is this a kernel build issue or a lilo issue? 

this is what i did:

cd /usr/src/kernel-source-2.4.18
make distclean
cp /boot/config-2.4.18-k7 .config
menuconfig (i exited and saved without making changes)
make-kpkg --append-to-version=gonzo-1 kernel-image
