If you run:

depmod -ae -F /boot/System.map-2.4.18-24.8.0cobalt-III \
	2.4.18-24.8.0cobalt-III

before rebooting it will generate the modules.dep file.  There is a 
%post script in the RPM that should do this but looking at it now I
can see the error... I will fix this and update the RPMs.

Thanks for writing this all down!  Feel free to point to the RPMs
in your howto or redistribute them however you wish.
