dmesg
cloop: version magic '2.6.12 SMP preempt 586 gcc-3.3' should be '2.6.12 SMP preempt 386 gcc-3.3'

The answer is very simple.
You MUST compile modules with the same kernel version and with the same compiler version as you compiled the kernel. This means that you can't boot to your new kernel and compile modules from it. Of course you should test that new kernel works but go then back and compile the modules you need with your old kernel.
