Hrmmm?
What exactly is the difficulty you are having? If this is a follow up to 
a previous post, I seem to have missed it.

If you are talking about the slinky installer, the kernel the installer 
uses is a slightly modified version of Red Hat's 2.4.9-31-BOOT kernel and 
the modules (available on my server) are from the same kernel.

To demonstrate:
[root at enigma cdrom]# insmod 
/var/www/html/rule/slinky/MODULES/kernel/drivers/cdrom/sbpcd.o
/var/www/html/rule/slinky/MODULES/kernel/drivers/cdrom/sbpcd.o: 
kernel-module version mismatch
        /var/www/html/rule/slinky/MODULES/kernel/drivers/cdrom/sbpcd.o 
was compiled for kernel version 2.4.9-31RULE
        while this kernel is version 2.4.9-21.

The slinky-v0.2.1 images work here without difficulty.

Please detail the difficulties you're having, and we'll see if we can 
sort it out.
