I got kernel 2.4.2 from Kernel.org and rebuilt it with the following steps:

make menuconfig
make dep
make clean
make modules
make modules_install
make bzImage
edited lilo.conf
executed lilo
make install

Kernel works ok except (you know there HAS to be an "except") the eth0 
tulip module will not load. It's built as a loadable module in the 
kernel.  I can 'insmod tulip' and it works. Just won't do it at 
startup.  conf.modules has the correct alias statement the ifcfg-eth0 
script looks unchanged.  What has happened? How can I fix it without 
putting a kludge in rc.local?

It's Red Hat 6.2.
