Actually, it should be a fairly good one, at least until recently. The Red Hat Linux 6.1+ driver disks use a cpio archive and specific header files. I didn't see those in your procedure.
Perhaps I had a bad example disk? I fully recreated the sample RH 6 driver disk -- all files including the miscellaneous text files and yes, my modules.cgz file is a cpio archive:
# find . -type f | cpio -o -H crc | gzip -n9 > ../modules.cgz
(unless I'm doing that wrong?)
