Though, with the README help file, I was successfully able to make and *select* my new target kernel, i had a kernel panic, and was not able to boot to it, also i noticed that my USB keybd and mouse connected to my monitor's usb port did not come up, so i guess something bad happened while doing make modules_install install, or while setting up the configurations before making. I shall try to re-compile with my known good configuration. Thanks again for the info.
