RSDP couldn't be found?

I'm recompiling my stock 2.4.22 (Slack9.1) kernel to enable ACPI support.
It compiled fine and booted, but dmesg reports a couple errors in regards
to RSDP.

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
ACPI: have wakeup address 0xc0001000
ACPI: Unable to locate RSDP
ACPI: Subsystem revision 20030813
ACPI: System description tables not found
    ACPI-0084: *** Error: acpi_load_tables: Could not get RSDP,
AE_NOT_FOUND
    ACPI-0134: *** Error: acpi_load_tables: Could not load tables:
AE_NOT_FOUND
ACPI: Unable to load the System Description Tables
PCI: ACPI tables contain no PCI IRQ routing entries
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

Does anyone know where RSDP is in the kernel config? I've never heard of
it before and I'm not seeing anything that could fit that acronym.

Thanks
