I followed the instructions from http://elinux.org/RPi_Upstream_Kernel_Compilation and http://elinux.org/RPi_Kernel_Compilation to do the compile. I am doing a cross-compile on a mac. Everything went through fine. I have these files in my boot partition of my SD card:

Hi Mahadevan,

Are you using gcc or clang to compile the kernel? I'm asking because you
said you're using a mac and using clang as kernel compiler might result
in all sort of problems.
