I think 2.6.26 would be a good place to start. Also I think the best would
be to populate the .config from /boot/config* that Fedora supplies. It takes
longer to build, but makes it more likely that we reproduce one or both
of the failures you saw (phone not mounted and the oops). You will need
to run  mkinitrd /boot/initrd-2.6.26-alan.img 2.6.26-alan or something
like it, Fedora's userland and .config pretty much require it.
