But you most likely will need an initrd.

I am using the custom 2.6.4 kernel from SuSE 9.1 (it has working isdn 
support for avm fritzcards with avm's binary modules) on one of my 
gentoo systems. This kernel does not have reiserfs compiled in. If you 
want to use SuSE's initrd you have to setup udev as well.

Until now everything works perfectly.
