      How did you compile your kernel? Did you use make-kpkg? Did you use
    /boot/config-2.4.18-686 for building new kernel?

      I'd suggest you to do the following:
     
    1. unpack /usr/src/kernel-source-2.4.18.tar.bz2
    2. copy /boot/config-2.4.18-1-686 to .config in the top dir of kernel source
    (kernel-image-2.4.18-1-686 should be installed)
    3. enable highmem. make menuconfig
    4. build kernel with make-kpkg: "make-kpkg --initrd --revision='revision01'
    kernel_image"
    5. install new deb
    6. reboot
    7. tell us about your luck :)

     Good luck!
