Hi.
Thanks for your help.

I have no error when doing a make modules with 2.4.10 , a bit strange thing
because modules vfat and fat are in place.Anyway I will follow your advice
and try 2.4.9

Thanks,
            Jorge Giménez

I had this same problem on 2.4.11 and 2.4.12 and found that the kernel
compile of modules was bombing out before it had all the modules built, and
the ones it didn't get to weren't being installed.  See if you have the
vfat.o module available for your newly built version.  If not, then you may
have this same problem.

You can also look at the compile output when doing 'make modules'.  If the
output shows errors at the end, this is likely your problem.

I went back to the 2.4.9 kernel and it built all modules just fine.
