	What moduls.deb file? Do you have stand alone modules packages
 installed? Which modules packages are these? The modules you
 designated that come with the kernel are part of the kernel imagfe
 deb itself.

	If you have installed the cramfs patch (comes with debian
 kernel sources), and passed the initrd option to make-kpkg, yes.
