[opensuse] building my own kernel with SuSE 11 on x86

Hello

 I am trying to build a kernel with suse, i've used this technique on other
 distros and I don't know why it does work here.  I am wondering if I have an
 in complete setup or I am simply  missing a step.

 1.  Fresh Install
 2.  cd /usr/src/linux
 3.  make oldconfig
 4.  make
 5.  make init
 6.  make modules
 7.  make modules_install
 8. make install
 9.  reboot

 The result is that the system will boot, but the kernel can not read the
 filesystem.

 FWIW, once this works, I will do a few more things with the system where I
 build a out of tree driver.  I figure if my driver is failing, I should
 probably try to build the kernel as-is under non-modified setup.

 Any response appreciated.
