Missing Modules After Compiling Kernel
I'm a little embarrassed after all these years I've never really successfully compiled my own kernel. I used this guide to make the following files:

linux-headers-5.1.9_5.1.9-1_amd64.deb
linux-image-5.1.9_5.1.9-1_amd64.deb
linux-libc-dev_5.1.9-1_amd64.deb

When I first booted into this kernel I only had one module installed:

Code:
$ lsmod
Module                  Size  Used by
x86_pkg_temp_thermal    20480  0

I did a 'apt install --reinstall ./linux-headers-5.1.9_5.1.9-1_amd64.deb' and a few more appeared:

Code:
$ lsmod
Module                  Size  Used by
vboxpci                28672  0
vboxnetadp             28672  0
vboxnetflt             32768  0
vboxdrv               425984  3 vboxpci,vboxnetadp,vboxnetflt
x86_pkg_temp_thermal    20480  0

A kernel I didn't build from source looks like this:
Code:
root@pyro:/usr/src# lsmod

So I'm missing a lot. Not sure if I built my kernel wrong, or if I need more steps to rebuild the rest of the modules correctly. Probably a little of both.

Any advice much appreciated.
