No /lib/modules/modules.dep with 2.5.64 kernel build

[chrisR]

I've just built 2.5.64 kernel in my home directory by make bzImage
then as root make modules and make modules_install, copied bzImage into /boot as bzImage-2564 etc etc

When I select the 2.5.64 kernel via grub the boot fails to load any modules, like agpgart, NVdriver, sound module etc.

If I do modprobe or insmod for these modules I get an error like can't find whatever module /lib/modules/module.dep no such file or directory.

If I try to do a make dep on 2.5.64 it tells me this is no longer necessary, so my /lib/modules/2.5.64 directory doesn't have a modules.dep like my 2.4.19-gentoo-r10 does.

Where have I gone wrong this time?
