vmware-RHEL3U3 install kernel 2.4.25 fail


I install vmware on windows xp, and install RHEL3U3 on vmware.

I need to upgrade kernel from 2.4.21 to 2.4.25 for smbfs supporting large file(> 2G). this is my compiler steps:

* download 2.4.25 kernel ;
* unpack to /usr/src/linux;
* make menuconfig;

Device Drivers --->SCSI device support ---><*> SCSI disk support
Device Drivers --->SCSI device support --->SCSI low-level drivers ---> <*> BusLogic SCSI support

Device Drivers ---> Fusion MPT device support ---><M> Fusion MPT (base + ScsiHost) drivers <M> Fusion MPT misc device (ioctl) driver

Device Drivers ---> USB support ---><*> USB Mass Storage support

Device Drivers ---> Networking support --->Ethernet (10 or 100Mbit) ---> <*> AMD PCnet32 PCI support

* make bzimage
* make modules
* make modules_install
* make initrd
* copy the bzImage, System.map, vmlinux to /boot and change their names.
* edit /etc/grub.conf
add new entry for 2.4.25 kernel.

* reboot ,select 2.4.25.
panic error occurs:

kmod: failed to exec /sbin/modprobe -s -k scsi_hostadapter, errno=2



start failed.

Is there any wrong steps?
any advice is appreciated.

Please do not post the same thread in more than one forum. Picking the most relevant forum and posting it once there makes it easier for other members to help you and keeps the discussion all in one place.
