module strangeness with 2.4 kernels

[Nic Ferrier <nferrier@tapsellferrier.co.uk>]

This is odd. I've compiled a selection of the latest 2.4 kernels
(including ben's) but the kernel is not looking for modules in the
correct place.

For example, when I run with ben's kernel I can't load dmasound and
doing modprobe -c produces output something like this:


  path[sound] = /lib/modules/2.4.18-benh/sound
  .
  .
  .


Clearly that's why modprobe can't find anything! Because the modules
the directory referred to doesn't exist, instead the tree looks like
this:


   /lib/modules/2.4.18-benh/
                        kernel/
                           drivers/
                              sound/


So, have I configured something wrong? Or is there a step I missed
out? or what?
