I have compiled= =20 non-GENERIC kernel, installed it, and rebooted in single user mode to=20 mergemaster and install world. But boot process hangs in the same=20 place("Timecounters.."). Then, i played with kernel directory at a boot tim= e=20 and loaded my old kernel. Then i commented out INCLUDE_CONFIG_FILE option a= nd=20 changed HZ=3D300 option to HZ=3D250 in kernel config and recompiled kernel.= And it=20 booted ok, updating runs smoothly, everybody happy now. Hope this helps you!
