In Debian, you don't need the full kernel sources to compile an
external module. You should install the correct kernel-headers
package instead. For example, if you are using
kernel-image-2.6.8-2-686, you should install 
kernel-headers-2.6.8-2-686. Remove the link you
mention above before installing it, the kernel-headers
package should have the proper link.

Somewhere around 2.6.15 the packages were renamed to
linux-image-2.6.x and linux-headers-2.6.x. If you are using
2.6.8, you may have to compile an older version of zd1211
or upgrade your kernel. IIRC, the latest versions required a
bleeding edge kernel.
