   did you recompiler the modules as well as the kernel ? 

   Looks like you Q may need the modules, seems you have them for
   network cards, cdroms and possibly scsi devices.  The line below
   will compiler and install the modules.  Do this from the kernel
   source dir (/usr/src/linux) or whereever you compiled the kernel from.

   make modules ; make modules_install

   Yup.
