Recompilation error in FC6

[anando.1980]

hi,

Currently I installed fC6 in my System with kernel version 2.6.18-1.2798.fc6.I want to make the kernel version free for other application.That's why I want to compile my current KERNEL ie, 2.6.18-1.2798.fc6 with linux-2.6.19-1

So i download kernel 2.6.19 from internet. and i recompile it.

i reboot system and select "my newly created kernel" .Then
i got following errors

"Trying to access resume device (LABEL=SWAP-sda
Creating root device

mount: could not find filesystem '/dev/root/'
Setting up other filesystems.

setuproot: moving to /dev failed: No such file or directory

THIS IS MY HARD DISK PARTITION:
FOLLOWING ARE DETAILS WHEN I GIVE "df" COMMAND

WE ARE USING AMD x86_64 WITH SATA HARD DISK.
Please give me the step-by-step procedure for the compilation......and to get a error free kernel

PLEASE SPEND YOUR VALUABLE TIME.

WAITING FOR YOUR REPLAY

Hi anando.1980 and welcome to the forum. Sorry to hear of your trouble. I honestly don't know what the problem is but I am sucessfully running 2.6.19-1 on CentOS. This is how I did it. Maybe there'll be something there that might help you key in to what the problem is. Sorry I couldn't help more...
