In 2.4, "make modules_install" is recursive with each subordinate Makefile
being responsible for installing the modules that it creates. Consequently,
there is no longer a need for a centralized 'module' directory.
If you want to create a module directory:
make modules_install INSTALL_MOD_PATH=<directory>
where <directory> is an existing directory.
Under <directory>, you will create lib/modules/<kernel version>/kernel that
will contain the various modules under directories like "drivers", "net", etc.
