You said you did a make modules_install but didn't say if you did a make
modules??
The full command in the /usr/src/linux directory should be:
make dep modules modules_install bzImage
Prior to running this you should go into the /lib/modules directory and:
mv 2.2.16 2.2.12.old
This will ensure that you're got what you want in the way of modules once
you're done. As the other person suggested you might want to double check what
you really did remove ie. SCSI support by doing an
make xconfig
prior to the kernel make command.
