to compile external modules debs, you should write:

 make-kpkg modules_image

I have written a small guide for installing alsa on debian. However,
it assumes you compile your own kernel as well.

 http://www.d.kth.se/~d98-jas/debian/debian-install-alsa.txt

As for no pre compiled alsa modules for 2.4.20. I guess, they just
haven't arrived yet.

http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=182315 also has some
nice info that the alsa build docs are being improved.
