I have a consistent problem running 'make modules_install' after compiling. The directory structure forms in /lib/modules, but no modules install. This problem showed up under -rc6-mm1 and -rc6-mm2, but not -rc6. I'm hoping somebody has hit this before, otherwise it's git-bisect time.
Process is what I have been given to understand as proper: untar, patch, configure and make as $USER, make modules_install as root. I'm on a new Slackware-11.0 install (glibc 2.3.6, gcc 3.4.6, module-init-tools 3.2.2), running linux-2.6.20-rc6. 'make' runs fine, no errors that I can tell. The output of 'make modules_install' goes something like this: (... sequence of same for all modules ...)

I've tried making everything as root, and that's not it. I'm going to keep trying, but hopefully someone already knows and can tell me what I'm doing wrong or why this keeps failing. Thanks!
