The make modules step on my box, a NForce2 with an Athlon-XP 2500+ easily took 15-20 minutes, and possibly 30. I'm not sure.
I think genkernel builds more stuff than I might if I did the kernel by hand, and I'm assuming your laptop is not faster than my desktop. 15 minutes was likely not enough.
I'd have to time 'make modules' as I've got the same CPU. I know that 'make bzImage' takes less than 4 minutes, so I don't imagine that building the modules takes much longer.
What does genkernel all do ?? I know it builds "busybox", but that shouldn't add that much longer to the process.
