That was it. Thank you so much. I ran make oldconfig, then was able to run make menuconfig and everything else needed to complete the recompile. So make mrproper is to be avoided I guess, even though RH's docs say to do it.
The link I have (and this is just how the RH installer set it up) is /usr/src/linux-2.4 -> linux-2.4.7-10. That seems to work.
