This might be going to the wrong list, but I don't think I subscribe to debian-devel. Maybe it actually goes to the linux kernel people. Anyway:
Shouldn't <make modules_install> 1) automatically purge the /lib/modules/* tree before installing? 2) update /etc/modules and conf.modules? I recompiled my kernel yesterday, and several modules became directly part of the kernel, as I had intended. But kerneld still tried to load the old modules on boot, causing lots of undefined symbol errors. And the presence of some of those modules in the /etc/ files caused a few errors, also. It wasn't a terrible problem, because I knew where to look to fix things. But in general, wouldn't it make more sense to have those things taken care of, so those who don't know might have a clue?
