I just had this problem 2 days ago :) After playing around with everyone's responses, here's what finally worked:
cd /usr/src/linux rm -r /lib/modules/* make config make dep make clean make zlilo make modules make modules_install /sbin/depmod -a pico /etc/modules <Commented out all the lines in /etc/modules I didn't need anymore, which happened to be all of them> You might want to move /lib/modules/* to another directory instead of deleting them (I tried just renaming the directory 2.0.27 to 2.0.27.old, but it didn't seem to work). You might also need to do something different with /etc/modules. I needed to edit that file because I got "vfat: module not found" messages etc. when I booted. Anyway, I hope that helps, and that all the paths I mentioned are correct :) I'm new to debian and I just wrote this off of memory so...
