I have a problem building the kernel too. I use genkernel with source 3.2.1 but the latest --sync brought in 3.3.8 which builds the kernel but fails on building the initramsfs. Something about now finding an ext2 header; however, when I searched for it I found in in the source tree. Do I need to fix the kernel problem first and get KMS in?
