Thanks for the link, I was there and didn't know about the module-init-tools. With the extreme aid of mc, I downloaded and extracted the zipped file, ran ./configure, then make, followed by make install. Then I checked for the presense of modprobe.conf.
Excellent work so far, now here is a key point -
From the source directory of module-init-tools, you need to run the following command:
./generate-modprobe.conf /etc/modprobe.conf
and it should all be good.
Also modprobe.conf should ideally be located in /etc - I'm curious about the modprobe.conf file you found - what are it's contents?
Best Regards,

The contents for the version that I found were the below.

There is a newly generated file for modprobe.conf, within my etc directory now. It doesn't show with locate though. It is about 5124 bytes and contains the excerpt listed below.
<snip>
install dummy0 /sbin/modprobe -o dummy0 --ignore-install dummy
install dummy1 /sbin/modprobe -o dummy1 --ignore-install dummy
install hid /sbin/modprobe --ignore-install hid && { /sbin/modprobe keybdev; /sbin/modprobe mousedev; /bin/true; }
install net-pf-10 /bin/true
install net-pf-19 /bin/true
install net-pf-3 /bin/true
install net-pf-6 /bin/true

I take it that this was created by the script command, that you passed on.
The information that I got, when running the command that you suggested that it was not translating the modules that pertained to the 2.4 build.
I take it that this is the desired behavior, for the script.
