you probably recompiled a simpler kernel, and this left a lot of unused
modules in  /lib/modules/2.2.18pre21 .

try to rename that directory and make modules_install again, and run
depmod -a.
then, if everything looks OK, cross your fingers and reboot! if
something goes wrong, you should anyway be able to rename back the old
directory.

hope it helps.
