OK.OK So there's no way to boot both.
FWIW, modutils-2.4.21-4 works fine with built 2.4.19 and 2.4.20-rc3 kernels.
While modprobe -c does give errors, all the rh scripts seem to work fine.
AND, rh's position on all this:
"You need *entirely different* modutils, not just a new modutils. We
probably
won't be looking into this until the new 2.5 module loader is actually
finished" Bugzilla 78508
So if you want to try 2.5 kernels, make your own 2.4.x, you can't use the rh
kernels.

Rusty has available a source RPM just for this situation.
http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/rusty/modules/modutils-2.4.21-4.src.rpm
Download this, build the rpm and install it and you will have both the new
and old available to you ...
