Okay. That was a bad move. Don't reboot!
Never done this, but try reinstalling the linux-image package.
Not the metapackages, but the kernel package itself looks like:
"linux-image-2.6.15-23-686" or something similar.
I believe synaptic has a "mark package for reinstallation" option.

I accidentally deleted everything in my /lib/modules directory by
misunderstanding some instructions while installing some drivers.
I'm worried that this has destabilized my system and that if I reboot,
my computer will die a nasty and horrible death.
Is there anything I can, or should do, to verify my system is okay
before rebooting and finding out the hard way?
Thank you for your help.

IT is the duty of every man, as far as his ability extends, to detect
and expose delusion and error. But nature has not given to everyone a
talent for the purpose; and among those to whom such a talent is given,
there is often a want of disposition or of courage to do it.
