Depends.. Are the modules actually there? Or did you compile
all your stuff into the kernel?

If you compiled all your stuff into the kernel, but didn't
remove entries from /etc/modules, it'll try and load
the modules anyway.

Also, have you got A. Bunk's potato-2.4 packages installed?
This _might_ be a problem if they're absent, I've no idea.
