I was able to eventually fix this problem.
Here is what I did
1) Did not use the kernel config file from the previous kernel (.config).
Using make oldconfig may have been the problem
Instead, I did this:
make clean
make mrproper
make menuconfig
select only the options I need
save config
2) ran:
make
make modules_install
make install
( NOTE: be sure to use 'make install' as it seems to create the
proper initrd file )
I was not using 'make install' before. I think this may have been the
actual fix as
it seems to setup the initial ram disk properly.
