That is correct.

The package is builded correct and there is allot of modules disabled sense 
they aren't needed. I have been running that kernel configuration for a while 
and both the new and the old kernel package gave the same error message.

The file exist in the deb-package but not on disc. For some reasons after 
removing the i2c-2.4.27 module package (the file still don't exist on disc) 
the kernel-image package now gets installable. I have no idea way... I have 
the all the package if someone wants them...
