18MB?  Yikes!  Am I reading that correctly?  My latest custom kernel is:

-rw-r--r--  1 root src  1.5M Dec  8 13:29
linux-image-2.6.31.1_custom.greer.sata.1.3_i386.deb

Umm, that looks as if you're targeting IA-64 (Itanium), not AMD64.  You need to
be targeting, I assume, AMD64, not Itanium.  Are you running an Itanium workstation?
