Go ahead and install Debian, without worrying about getting the NICI have no idea how to manualy install a kernel and adding extra stuff

and download the .deb of kernel-source-2.4.22. Then install that,
install make-kpkg, and build yourself a 2.4.22 kernel with support
for the Broadcom.
to it means editing files I have no understanding of. I'm going to
stick with just trying to make a module.
..no need: http://packages.debian.org/unstable/misc/kernel-package.html
..instead of wasting time on tossing stuff into your deb in the un-deb way, click-n-read the the links we gave you.
