Subject: compiled kernel fails miserably

Hi folks,
I pawned through the recent posts but I couldn't find anything
really relating to my problem. I installed 1.5.2 this past weekend
and wanted to re-compile the kernel to reduce it's size. I did the
normal thing of editting the config file and compiling and everything
seemed to work as it has in the past. However, when I boot this
kernel, everything breaks. I get core dumps from things such as
chmod, wscons breaks, and my root partition ends up getting fairly
trashed (a serious fsck is required). Does anyone have a clue as to
what I'm doing wrong? Is the syssrc.tgz in the 1.5 portion of the ftp
site not correct?
Any help would be greatly appreciated..
