SUCCESS! [CentOS] Help rebuilding kernel get mount error on reboot

John,

Was there a reason for the (2) make oldconfigs? just curious

This all worked

		rpm -i kernel.XXX.src.rpm
                cd /usr/src/redhat/SPECS
                rpmbuild -bp --target i686 kernel.XXX.spec
                cd /usr/src/redhat/BUILD/kernel-2.6.9/linux-2.6.9
                make mrproper
                cp /boot/config-2.6.9-11.EL .config
                make oldconfig
                make oldconfig
                make menuconfig
                        Device Drivers -> Character Devices -> Serial Drivers
                        change Max number of non legacy 8250_NR_UARTS to 36
                make bzImage
                make modules
                make modules_install
                make install

Go into the directory ... do:

make mrproper

cp /boot/config-xxxx .

make oldconfig

make oldconfig

make menuconfig

(adjust what you want)

make bzImage

make modules

make modules_install

make install
