Boot the PC with the Live CD. Then mount your directories, swap space and /proc (just like you did when following the install doc). You can then do "cd /usr/src/linux && cat /proc/config > .config" (also as the install document suggest). I would then suggest running genkernel with the "--config" option. That will bring up the ncurses make menu. This way you can remove all the unnecessary things. But if you frightened by this or don't want to play with it and are happy with the 'exact' config from the Live CD then do just do a genkernel.
Wash, Rinse, and hopefully you won't have to repeat.

The configs in /usr/src/* and /etc/kernels are different from that config, is there any way to get that config back?
