LOL!! yes, its very easy to roll your own kernel, unless it doesn't work.
especially if you are using esoteric raid controllers that aren't even
real raid controllers... or don't even use scsi.

sorry, couldn't resist :)

to original poster: if you are to the point that you want to play
with/help develop the vserver project you should be comfortable rolling
your own kernels. rite of passage and all that. inevitably you will want
something the there-for-your-convenience binary kernels don't include.
esp. if you use more than 1G ram.

ha!
