Arjan,
OK. I found and downloaded src.rpm package and
#rpm --rebuild NVIDIA_nforce-1.0-0248.src.rpm
Under kernel 2.4.18-3-kgdb, the compilation went through smoothly, but /sbin/depmod -a still complain
Unresolved symbols in /lib/modules/2.4.18-3custom/kernel/drivers/net/nvnet.o
thus module install failed.
the depmod -ae has many unresolved symbols, such as:
eth_type_Rsmp_c63f6300
unregister_netdev_Rsmp_b4be79f4
So the same problem still remains. Does these unresolved symbols mean something here? Appreciate your hint how can I fix the issue for installation of network module.

I renamed and copied System.map and bzImage onto /boot/System.map-2.4.18-3-kgdb and /boot/vmlinuz-2.4.18-3-kgdb respectively on test machine. The /lib/modules/2.4.18-3custom/ directory along with subdirectories were also copied onto test machine. Of course lilo.conf was edited. The newly built kernel work fine except one thing: missing network interface driver module nvnet.o Because I do not have source of the module. So I copied the nvnet.o into /lib/modules/2.4.18-3custom/kernel/drivers/net/ and added an entry in modules.dep. By running depmod, it told me that unresolved symbols nvnet.o. I am wondering what I am missing here. Your help will be appreciated,adding kgdb to the kernel is a big change to the kernel; you need to recompile modules, not just copy them.
