I'm no kernel expert... One thing you could try is: - grab the config file from the gentoo kernel on the live-cd - then do a make oldconfig with your new kernel sources and the config you just grabbed - add any changes you need (if any) - compile your new kernel This will give you a kernel that supports a lot of things by default. It really isn't the gentoo-ricer-way [1], but it has got me out of a bind on several occasions.
