I compiled the kernel with all modules:

I have udev running on my machine since more than a year.
I created the following section in grub.conf:
title vanilla-all-modules
root (hd0,0)
kernel /boot/kernel-all-modules root=/dev/hda1
The kernel is unable to mount my ext3 root filesystem.
It shows the following message:
Kernel panic - not syncing: VFS: Unable to mount root fs on
unknown-block(0,0).
(hd0,0) is correct since I copied it from my daily grub section.
I have ext3.ko in the following path:
/lib/modules/2.6.24.3/kernel/fs/ext3/ext3.ko
Could you give me some indications of how to solve this problem.
Thanks in advance

/*make allmodconfig will make everything it can as a module, including
the filesystems.....you need the ext3 built in to mount the root filesystem.
my advise would be to make menuconfig after you have done make all
config, and change the ext3 from mto * (i.e. built in, not modular),
then make && make modules_install
