Help installing kernel from ppckernels.org

[nobut1 <nobut1@cwis.net>]

I recently downloaded the latest pre-compiled debian kernel from 
ppckernel.org (linux-bk-2.4-devel-2.4.26) and installed it according to 
the direction listed:

	gunzip linux-pmac-*.tar.gz
	tar xf linux-pmac-*.tar
	cd linux-pmac-*
	mv vmlinux /boot
	mv System.map /boot
	mv modules /lib/modules/VERSION

The only exception being that I downloaded the file on my OS X box and 
gunzipped it there.  I then copied the .tar file to my Linux box via 
Samba and untared it there.

I moved the modules folder into /lib/modules/2.4.26.  I then booted in 
the Mac OS (My linux box is a Power Mac 9600 using Bootx as its Linux 
bootmanager) and copied the vmlinux file (from the completely unstuffed 
archive on my OS X box) to the correct folders (I renamed the existing 
vmlinux file to vmlinux2.2) and restarted using Bootx with the vmlinux 
kernel selected.

When Linux starts using the 2.4.26 vmlinux kernel, modprobe gives a 
constant warning that it is unable to find 
/lib/modules/2.4.26/modules.dep.  It gives this warning several dozen 
times in a row.  I then get several hundred complaints involving files 
(not owned by root)

I consider myself pretty resourceful but am at a loss.  What am I doing 
wrong?

Thanks in advance.
