any pointers?

why think have problem? internet connection ok? graphics ok? there's bug report against "fglrx". it's been posted before. would't worry if working ok, alert , consider. btw title of post correct..."problems installing custom kernel" post remark of "i error after compilation on install" incorrect install of .deb.package , not same compiling kernel.
