Hi Emver,
 
Before making the modules, edit EXTRAVERSION entry at the top of the Makefile (/usr/src/linux/Makefile) with any informative string you want. This will ensure that your new kernel will find the right modules. Upon 'make modules_install' it will safely place your new compiled modules at /lib/modules/kernel-version-$EXTRAVERSION. Also, before recompiling, you might want to backup your current kernel modules first, before doing "make modules_install".

Subject: [plug] Modules problem

The problem is during bootup, there is this line that says unresolved sysmbol(s) when Updating module dependencies for Linux 2.2.13... 
 
I've already tried compiling the kernel with module support and auto-loading.  I'm just not sure if my compiling is correct, the sequence for compiling the kernel that i'm doing is this: make mrproper, make menuconfig, make dep, make clean, make modules, make modules_install, make zImage & make zlilo. 
 
Or is ther anything that i missed configuring?
 
try to rm -rf /lib/modules/2.2.13 and then make modules modules_install
