With that one it said kernel stack overflow when I was booting. Then I tried the pmac_defconfig and it said that the pc had reached memory out of bounds. Finally I took the defconfig from ben H's 2.2.15pre3 kernel and went through the whole make config process using ben's config as a guide. The kernel I got out of this booted successfully but as soon as I logged in it said kernel stack overflow and froze up. I know that Ben's configuartion works because I am using his kernel right now. So I am at a loss as to why I can't compile a kernel that works. I just rsynced the source right before I tried these so it is about as new as possible. If anyone has figured this out before or has any ideas what's causing the stack overflow let me know.
