[PLUG] RH compile help - Thank you!

["W. Chris Shank" <chris.shank@acetechgroup.com>]

Thanks to everyone who provided feedback regarding getting a redhat
kernel to compile. I used make oldconfig to product the .config file,
and although I wasn't able to get RH8 to compile with ACPI enabled, I
was able to use this .config on 2.4.20 and was able to compile nearly
perfectly - only had to remove sim710 module. And make install was a
crucial step that I never knew about, i guess i should have RTFM - but i
don't recall needing it for 2.2 kernel compiles. 

Anyway - I'm now able to successfully get sbp2, ohci1394 loaded - in
fact - they load by default in rh stock kernel. what i've discovered is
that i need to rmmod ohci1394 and sbp2 then modprobe ohci1394 to reload
them both. once i do that, they firewire cd is available as scd0. now
i'm just trying to get these to load correctly on boot up. i tried to
move them lower in the modules.conf and then even commented them out,
but still the load incorrectly. Anyone have a clue what i need to do?
dmesg's and modules.conf below. 

thanks in advance
