The easiest thing for you would be to go to rpmfind.net: fr2.rpmfind.net (for instace, it's the fastest for me, I'am in Spain)
and look for 'kernel' You will find a mandrake package called 2.4.13-13mdk, download it and install it with rpm. This is a precompiled kernel with all the modules. Anyway I would have the sources arround just in case, so download as well 'kernel-headers' and 'kernel-sources' for version 2.4.13 from rpmfind.net and install them with rpm. You will have to use the option 'nodeps' for 'kernel-headers' because it will conflict with version 2.4.8. I did that and, apart of the problem with my mouse with or without devfs, it seems that mount and supermount work fine. I had to recompile the kernel because I wanted it to be costumized for my Athlon processor, the precompiled one by mandrake is for an intel processor.
