Well, I just downloaded
kernel-2.4.22-20.1.2024.2.36.nptl.i686.rpm
kernel-doc-2.4.22-20.1.2024.2.36.nptl.i386.rpm
kernel-source-2.4.22-20.1.2024.2.36.nptl.i386.rpm
kernel-unsupported-2.4.22-20.1.2024.2.36.nptl.i686.rpm
(my modutils, initscripts and mkinitrd from RHL9 were above the required
versions so there was no need to download the Rawhide packages) and
installed via
rpm -ivh kernel-2.4.22-20.1.2024.2.36.nptl.i686.rpm kernel-unsupported-2.4.22-20.1.2024.2.36.nptl.i686.rpm
rpm -Uvh kernel-doc-2.4.22-20.1.2024.2.36.nptl.i386.rpm kernel-source-2.4.22-20.1.2024.2.36.nptl.i386.rpm
and when I rebooted the kernel started up fine but then just stopped
after mounting the local file systems. I then rebooted back into the old
kernel and took a look in /boot and there doesn't appear to be a
module-info for 2.4.22-20.1.2024.2.46.nptl.

I'm assuming that that would be the cause of the problem. But shouldn't
that file be installed from the RPM?
Best, Darren
