/bin/lilo.conf will give "no such file or directory" as an error, so there
is a possable problem here, namly lilo has not installed the new kernel.???

You need to reboot to load the new kernel. Upon booting your system should
automaticly do, 'depmod -a' which updates the file
/lib/modules/kernel-version-number/modules.dep so modprobe knows which
modules to load and in what order.

Yes because insmod does not know about dependancies, you should use
modprobe in this instance.
Another and beter way is to have kerneld or kmod as its called in the
2.2.xx kernels to automaticly load kernel modules upon demand.

The ax25.o module needs to be loaded before hdlcdrv.
