the installer uses kernel-BOOT for floppies and (I think this changed)
the i586 kernel for the cd based installs (note: prior to fc1 this was
also the kernel-BOOT kernel). If you have a recentish intel/amd cpu then
the installed kernel will be the i686 kernel. They're all different in
config, and you can't use a module build for one into the other. 
(For the config files see the configs/ directory as part of the
kernel-source package)
