[PLUG] vanilla kernel on yellow dog


I am trying to build a vanilla kernel on yellow dog linux and everytime I successfully compile a kernel it does not boot.  When I try to boot my new kernel it always hangs on "returning from prom init." I found a prebuilt 2.6.17-rc3 and tried it and had the same problem.  I am currently trying to build 2.6.17.1 from kernel.org.  I created an initrd and I I tried hard compiling the ata driver.  This is frustrating.  I want 2.6.17 because it includes the module for my wireless card.
