A quick google search reveals that the RAMDISK error means
#define ENOSPC 28 /* No space left on device */
Did you do a mkinitrd for the new kernel you built? Also, i would
check if the drives / fs modules for the root device are built into
the kernel.
details on what are the steps you followed to rebuild the kernel and
the corresponding configs from the boot loader might be of help.
