The options seem to be correct, however the error message indicates
the lack of 'divert' in the kernel. Are you sure you properly
built and *installed* your custom kernel? Check the output of
'dmesg | grep divert', you should see '... divert enabled...',
otherwise something went wrong with your kernel build.
