Martin,

Can you find out why is depmod trying to open /lib/modules/2.4.28-pre2/ ?

I've got no clue.

Hi,
  does anyone still use 2.4 series kernel? ;)
# make dep; make bzImage; make modules

this is not the module shipped by the kernel.org kernel...

Right. Sorry that I didn't say it more clearly, but I'm installing 2.4.30-pre3-bk2 kernel.
cd /usr/src/linux-2.4.30-pre3-bk2
make dep
make bzImage
make modules
make modules_install

and then I hit the error about some totally unrelated kernel version in /lib/modules? :(

Hi all,
  unfortunately I was too fast deleting the problematic /lib/modules/2.4.28-pre2
directory. Here's the log of what I've done at about the time I hit the problem:

  427  cd /usr/src
  428  ls
  429  uname -a
  430  bzip2 -dc linux-2.4.29.tar.bz2 | tar xf -
  431  cd linux-2.4.29
  432  bzip2 -dc ~mmokrejs/tmp/patch-2.4.30-pre3.bz2 | patch -p1
  433  bzip2 -dc ~mmokrejs/tmp/patch-2.4.30-pre3-bk2.bz2 | patch -p1
  434  cp ../linux-2.4.30-pre1-bk5/.config .
  435  cd ..
  436  mv linux-2.4.29 linux-2.4.30-pre3-bk2
  437  pwd
  438  cd linux-2.4.30-pre3-bk2
  439  make oldconfig
  440  make dep; make bzIMage; make modules
  441  make modules_install
  442  make modules_install
  443  ls
  444  make bzImage
  445  make modules
  446  make modules_install
  447  make bzImage
  448  make modules
  449  make modules_install
  450  gzip .config
  451  gzip -d .config.
  452  gzip -d .config.gz 
  453  cp .config .config-ok
  454  make menuconfig
  455  make dep; make bzImage; make modules
  456  make modules_install
  457  make menuconfig
  458  make dep; make bzImage; make modules
  459  make modules_install
  460  make menuconfig
  461  make dep; make bzImage; make modules
  462  make modules_install
  463  make menuconfig
  464  make dep; make bzImage; make modules
  465  make modules_install
  466  rm -rf /lib/modules/2.4.28-pre2
  467  make modules_install


The step 466 "fixed" my problem. I have repeated all the steps as show in the history log,
but no luck to hit the problem again. I just guess the /lib/modules/2.4.28-pre2/xfree-drm/via_drv.o
file came from gentoo's xfree-drm package as at that time /usr/src/linux pointed to that kernel version.
The System.map (/usr/src/linux-2.4.28-pre2/System.map) maybe wasn't updated, as I think the modules
just get compiled against configured kernel src tree.

I did in the /usr/src/linux-2.4.30-pre3-bk2 tree (while rm -rf /lib/modules/2.4.28-pre2 already happened):
strace make modules_install 2>&1 | grep '2.4.28'
and go nothing interresting.

Also, 
find . -type f | xargs grep 2.4.28
doesn't show anything of interrest.
