Loading a compressed root fs to ramdisk

I am trying to build a two disk boot system. I feel that the problem is
with the kernel loading a compressed filesystem. This is what I know.
1) Boot RH52/rescue and it loads my compressed disk
2) Boot my kernel and it loads my uncompressed disk
3) I am using kernel "linux-2.0.36"
4) Boot my kernel and it can not find any file system on my
compressed disk
5) /usr/src/linux/.config
#
# Additional Block Devices
#
# CONFIG_BLK_DEV_LOOP is not set
# CONFIG_BLK_DEV_MD is not set
CONFIG_BLK_DEV_RAM=y
CONFIG_BLK_DEV_INITRD=y
# CONFIG_BLK_DEV_XD is not set
# CONFIG_PARIDE is not set
# CONFIG_BLK_DEV_HD is not set
I am sure there is a simple solution, but it currently eludes me.
