Ihave got Kernel 2.4.0 to compile on a RH7.0. I downloaded the source and untarred it into /usr/src/redhat/SOURCES/linux. I used xconfig to configure it. I then did a make dep, make clean, make bzdisk (to put on floppy). When I booted the floppy I got the following error message: kmod: failed to exec /sbin/modprobe -s -k binfmt-464c, error=8 The version of insmod is 2.4.2 and all the other programs listed in the change file are upgraded. This is the first time I have changed my kernel version number. I have recompiled kernels in the past the get my ide cdrom to be a fake scsi and to configure my sound. Also should I be concerned about the System.map file that is laying around in the directory. One last piece of info. usr/src/linux points to the 2.4.0 source. Any ideas. John Miller
