Kind of an embarrasing question here. I'm trying to modify/optimize the
stock kernel that shipped with redhat; I've used up2date to get the
kernel to 2.4.9-31 (i think that's the latest) but i'd lik
may be use the full path of modprobe at the command prompt

You have to run modprobe as the root user. Do 'su -', enter your root

Try this:
Download and install the src rpm, it will go in /usr/src itself
Down and dirty
cd to /usr/src/linux-2.4.9-31
make mrproper
make xconfig
make dep
make bzImage
make modules
make modules_install

as router/server/firewall/juijitsu-master quite yet (though that's the
idea for later on); hence my mention of looking at different modem
modules. Firstly, I'd just like to compile a fresh kernel from scratch

Kind of an embarrasing question here. I'm trying to modify/optimize the
stock kernel that shipped with redhat; I've used up2date to get the
kernel to 2.4.9-31 (i think that's the latest) but i'd like to make some
small changes - and generally learn more about some of the kernel
options.
