Thanks for the reply.  I'm familiar with these options, but as the  
system is currently running GENERIC and trying to compile a kernel  
would guarantee to cause the problem to occur...  I could probably  
keep hacking at it until I finally get everything compiled, but...

Ugh.  I guess this option doesn't appeal very much.  Are there any  
other options available?
