I've compiled linux-2.6.6 under Fedora-2 without any problems, so I doubt if your difficulties are anything to do with FC-2.
I wasn't clear what you were doing.
The message seemed to be about a different /lib/modules/<version>
to the version you were compiling.
Thanks everybody for your help :)
Do you have an /etc/modprobe.conf (used by 2.6 kernels)? Did you compile a 2.6 kernel on your machine before you installed FC-2? Maybe you need to install module-init-tools? (You can get this from www.kernel.org .)
To compile the kernel I would get linux-2.6.6.tar.bz2 from http://www.kernel.org un-tar it in /usr/src/linux-2.6.6 go to this directory and say make oldconfig; make xconfig [or make menuconfig] Make sure the settings are correct for your machine, and say make bzImage; make modules and then (as root) make modules_install make install
