That's a good question. I downloaded the source and created the symbolic 
link to the linux -> linux-2.4.28-gentoo-r8. After that I'v been executing 
the commands make menuconfig; make dep; make clean; make bzImage; make 
modules; make modules_install; in that order. I read that I had to duplicate 
the /lib/modules/ since it's the same version number. Besides that, what 
would make it use the old modules directory and not the more recent version? 
Environment variable or hard-coded value somewhere in the config file?
