I seem to recall that, in BB-1.01, disabling support for linux-2.4 also disabled
some code that was used for linux-2.6. That was changed later (BB-1.1.?) Try
re-enabling 2.4 support, or switch to the latest svn or BB-1.1.2.

Note that there's already a patch for 1.1.2 that enables modprobe to scan
/lib/modules/`uname -r`/modules.aliases, which you definitely want. That patch
has already made its way to svn.
