*FXO* modules, right?

You don't . Just 'fxsks' lines which look like bchan/dchan lines in
zaptel.conf. In zapata.conf they are the same channels (with fxs_ks
signalling).

Right.

cat /proc/zaptel/*

What type of conflict? The number of a channel is set when you load a
driver (technically: when you register its spans to zaptel).

If you want to make sure that the current channels of the E1 card keep
their numbers, you should load the analog card second. On Debian systems
you can guarantee that by e.g. putting the module names in the proper
order in /etc/modules .

# Something of the sort of:
fxsks = 32-35

; something of the sort of:
; context = from-pots
; group = 2
cidsignalling = v23
cidstart = polarity
channel => 32-35

Alternatively use genzaptelconf, but be sure to set lc_country to uk.
