Do you have the .config from the kernel you currently use? does this show anything? gzcat /proc/config.gz Or maybe it was placed in boot? ls /boot/config* If not, you are going to be rebuilding the kernel from scratch. Is this a gentoo system you are on? 2.4.18 is very old, unless you are doing a very specific task which requires it, I would suggest using the newest version available, either 2.4.29 or 2.6.10...
