 I am presently having problems compiling suspend2 kernel 2.6.22.
 It compiles with genkernel, but if I try to use make and customise a

 Can anyone offer me any guidance as to which kernel options to

Is the IDE cdrom drive on the same controller as the hard drive?

You might try boting with the genkernel kernel and looking at 
/proc/config.gz; I don't know if genkernel sets the option to create it, 
but, if it does, that's the configuration for the running kernel. Then you 
can import it into the source tree (cd usr/src/linux; zcat 
/proc/config.gz  .config; make oldconfig), and then customize further 
from a working configuration.
