OK, here is some more information I have gathered from my machine.

In /usr/src:
lrwxrwxrwx      linux -> linux-2.4.20-gentoo-r1
drwxr-xr-x      linux-2.4.20-gentoo-r1

uname -r:
2.4.20-gentoo-r1

These modules exist:
/lib/modules/2.4.20-gentoo-r1/kernel/drivers/net8139too.o
/lib/modules/2.4.20-gentoo-r1/kernel/drivers/net8139cp.o
/lib/modules/2.4.20-gentoo-r1/kernel/drivers/mii.o

This is the output from lsmod:
Module     Size     Used by    Not tainted
8139too    14600     0
mii         2016     0 [8139too]

What do the "Used by" "0" fields mean?  I will look at your config file
and the URL that Stroller suggested.  Thanks.

                        -Brian
