[LAU] [OT] - a little help with kernel building

Hello all! I'm just compiling/configuring a 2.6.30.4 vanilla kernel. Only with the current configuration it won't start. When I boot and I can choose the kernel and it tries to start, but then the two LEDs on my keyboard (as in letters and numbers :-) ) start to blink rhythmically and nothing else happens. Does anyone of you have some standard ideas of, what to change? I already tried: 1. The RCU settings 2. disabled tickless system 3. disabled control groups 4. double-checked, that I chose the correct CPU and ACPI settings Points I'm not sure about are some of the memory options. There are options to disallow extensive access of /dev/mem, checking for corrupt memory and something concerning AMI and PHOENIX biosen to have the first 64k of memory. Those weren't there the last time I made my kernel. If anyone has helpful hints (not take a look at the screen please! :-) ), then I'd be _VERY_ grateful!
