Well, what kernel version were you using before? If it was 2.4.18, did
you move/rename the old '/lib/modules/2.4.18'? Also, did you use
make-kpkg? That gives you a dire-sounding warning if there's a
'/lib/modules/' directory for the kernel version it's installing.
You might also run 'depmod -ae' as root if nothing I said above rings
any bells.
