OK, yes. BUT the only modules which I've _needed_ to create "the Debian way" are the pcmcia-cs modules, which are unpacked from the pcmcia-cs package into /usr/src/modules/pcmcia-cs, and those are the only modules in the modules directory. However, in /lib/modules/2.4.18/ is a bunch of other stuff; and I _always_ (re)move my old modules directory when installing a new kernel. I'm pretty sure (the experts can speak to it) that dpkg -i <kernel-image> takes care of installing everything which you select _as a module_ during the kernel config, and that you only need to make modules the Debian way when they are third party modules like pcmcia-cs.
