As far as I know, it's been that way *both* with 2.4 and 2.6. You mention
there was no need to run 'make modules' and 'make modules_install' when you
ran 2.4.18 in Woody. I assume it's because perhaps that's the default kernel
and the modules were already built and installed during the installation
process.
