This is all 'Fedora' stuff, not Linux stuff. You should upgrade
your 'mkinitrd' (or rewrite it) so it doesn't use Fedora-specific
stuff if you intend to install an un-patched kernel.
Fedora is quite happy with an unpatched kernel, that is generally what I
am running for development on Fedora.
If you are using LVM2 or MD you just need to be sure you have the rightI'm not using lvm or raid in the /root or the /boot partition. All partitions was made directly in the disk and formated with ext3 file system. I think all needed options was compiled in the new kernel, since I copied the /boot/config-2.6.12-1.1456_FC4 (config file from the kernel that works fine) and compiled the kernel.src.rpm without any modifications in the config file, and it still not working.
config options enabled (the Red Hat src.rpm is a good guide).
