All you need to worry about is modutils, and maybe updating the NFS stuff
if you're going to use the kernel NFS server.  I didn't need to update.  
TMMW.

Keep in mind that the 2.4.0-testx kernels have been crash-prone recently,
although 2.4.0-test9 (what I'm using now) seems to be pretty solid and
makes 2.2.x look slow as molasses going uphill (I'm exaggerating, but you
get the idea).
