I had a working .config. Unfortunately, I left it at office.
The main 'trap' usually would be the SCSI Driver.
If you're using PVSCSI, go into SCSI & RAID, then SCSI Low Level
Driver, then select VMware PVSCSI as built-in, not module.
If you're using LSI Logic, select Fusion MPT instead.
Don't forget to emerge grub and edit /boot/grub/menu.lst
