Sort answer is no.
More details information about what happening would help ...
Did you change anything else other than the kernel?
Does the computer power up (can you hear cooling fans/hard disk)?
Do you get any BIOS extension messages (graphics cards, for example)?
Do you get the standard POST startup messages (BIOS/Memory test, DPMI
check, ...)?
Does the screen change at all after the POST messages?
Can you still see a cursor?
Does the floppy or hard disk lights come on?
Does Ctrl-X help any?
Cheers,
Paul.
