To do bad things? :P

Is this rootkit topic totally off-topic here :) ? I was wandering, if one "removes"
the struct module completely from procfs and sysfs, then, is there a way to find it?
(some direct approach other then pattern matching kernel memory).

Also, If I disable lsmod kernel support, and patch the kernel not to implement
/dev/kmem, then, is the system 100% protected against kernel rootkits?

(I believe that If I do not need X server, then I do not need /dev/kmem).
