kernel 2.6.29.6-217.2.3.fc11 compiled from source will not boot

There is something seriously wrong with this kernel release.
It compiles - but will not boot all the way. It hangs somewhere.
I even tried to boot into single user mode. I never get to the shell
prompt when booting in single user mode, nor to the 
gnome login banner when letting it boot in multiuser mode.
After some 30-45 minutes I  Ctrl-Alt_Del and the kernel
pops the message

Stopping all md devices
..
and the pc reboots.

I did not have this problem with 
2.6.29.6-213.fc11
nor with it's predecessor
2.6.29.5-191.fc11

Are there others who have tried to build  2.6.29.6-217.2.3.fc11 from source rpm and configured the kernel in any way before building?
Did you see any errors when running make install modules_install - as I did? Did the resulting kernel boot up all the way?

If you need more info, please let me know.

Markus K.
