Hi,
You need to reboot to your original configuration. Then cd to your linux source directory;
Code:
#cd /usr/src/linux
#make modules
#make modules_install
Hope you did not make clean or make mrproper. If you did not then the modules still can be created and installed.
Just compiling the kernel source to create the image and using image will get you just that an image without the needed modules. You need to use the object files created during the compilation to produce the modules.
Check out reference #4 and #6 in my sig!
HTH!
