If you aren't seeing any output then it it might be a
mismatch in processor types:

CONFIG_MPENTIUMIII=y
# CONFIG_MK6 is not set

You want to reverse those two options for the raq...
Actually looking through your kernel config file there
are a couple of other drivers missing (CONFIG_BLK_DEV_ALI15X3,
CONFIG_EEPRO100) so you might want to start with this:

There are also 2.4.20 cobalt3 .deb pkgs at that site...
