The error message is misleading, to say the least. The problem is most likely that between the kernel and the modules, one is compiled with CONFIG_MOD_VERSIONS set and the other is not. To fix it you could install the kernel sources, run "make menuconfig", and compile the kernel and modules:
make dep make clean make zImage [Test the new kernel. I copy it to my dos partition and use loadlin.exe after booting Caldera opendos.] make modules make modules_install . I have done this several times and I am 'C' illiterate. --Brian.
