I think I have this kernel recompilation thing sussed. Just a small error
remains, I think...

Sussessfully done make config, make dep; make zImage;make modules lilo
update; mv /lib/modules/2.0.30 /lib/modules/2.0.30.old; make modules_install.

Its just that when I reboot, just before i get the login prompt, I get
multiple errors to the like of:

modprobe:  Can't locate net-pf-4 Module
modprobe:  Can't locate net-pf-5 Module
(repeated a few times)

I have checked every bit of docmentation I can find, to no avail. Could't
much documentation to be found on what to do with your modules when you
recompile the kernel.

I can't find anything in the rc scripts that refer to modprobe except  in
rc.sysinit to the like of:

modprobe st 2>/dev/null

when using the grep command.

I have selected autoloading of modules, and use version numbers on modules,
when  my config file. I didn't select "module" unless I had no choice. ie
ip_masq_*. I are using redhat 4.2, with kernel 2.0.30.

If someone has the time to spell it out to this newbie,

Thanks in advance
