Thanks Stefan! Now i can do "make oldconfig" without lots of questions about kernel.

I did something like this

wget http://www.readynas.com/download/GPL/RNDP6xxx_4.2.16_WW_src.zip
unzip RNDP6xxx_4.2.16_WW_src.zip -d devel
cd devel/linux-2.6.37.5
cp arch/x86/configs/defconfig.smp .config
make oldconfig
make menuconfig
make modules
mkdir /lib/modules/2.6.37.5.RNx86_64.2.1/kernel/drivers/net
cp drivers/net/*.ko /lib/modules/2.6.37.5.RNx86_64.2.1/kernel/drivers/net
depmod -a
modprobe ppp_generic

But i get this error after the modprobe command

WARNING: Error inserting slhc (/lib/modules/2.6.37.5.RNx86_64.2.1/kernel/drivers/net/slhc.ko): Invalid module format
FATAL: Error inserting ppp_generic (/lib/modules/2.6.37.5.RNx86_64.2.1/kernel/drivers/net/ppp_generic.ko): Invalid module format
