Kernel build failure

Hello

i used yum to download the kernel source which is 
linux-2.4.22-1.2149.nptl. i then copied config-2.4.22-1.2149.nptl from 
/boot to /usr/src/linux-2.4/.config. Ran 'make oldconfig', 'make 
bzImage' ... etc BUT it does not produce a working kernel. During boot 
'jbd' and 'ext3' modules complain about wrong version. The're for 
....2149.nptl not the new ...2149.nptlcustom

The one possible strange thing is that 'make modules_install' ends like this

mkdir -p pcmcia; \
find kernel -path '*/pcmcia/*' -name '*.o' | xargs -i -r ln -sf ../{}\ 
pcmcia
if [ -r System.map ]; then /sbin/depmod -ae -F System.map 
2.4.22-1.2149.nptlcustom; fi
[root at TESTBOX linux-2.4]#

as if that last line wasnt executed ?? and the script bombed ??

Any ideas whats going on ??

Dave
