One option is simply to run without an initrd and compile everything
in.
Please note that you need an initrd to mount the root filesystem by
label. Without one, you will have to modify grub.conf to say something
like
kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.8.1 ro root=/dev/sda6
This is a slightly modified version of my grub.conf: I'm currently
running a custom-complied vanilla 2.6.8.1.
Hope this helps,
James.
