What version of modutils are you using? Take a look at
Documentation/Changes in your 2.4 source tree, it lists some important
information about software versions when running the 2.4 kernels. Also,
there are many known issues when compiling 2.4 kernels with gcc 2.96. In
other words, don't do it. If your going to compile any kernel in RH7, I
would highly recommend using kgcc. You can install it via rpm. Hope this
helps.
