It's the debian kernel-source-2.4.20.deb
make menuconfig && make dep && make bzlilo modules modules_install

A complete recompile solved the problem, or went around it...

cp /usr/src/kernel-source-2.4.20/.config /usr/src/config.txt
rm -rf /usr/src/kernel-source-2.4.20 
tar xjf kernel-source-2.4.20.tar.bz2
cp /usr/src/config.txt /usr/src/kernel-source-2.4.20/.config
cd /usr/src/kernel-source-2.4.20/
make menuconfig && make dep && make bzlilo modules modules_install
