That means you need to be in root mode and logged to /usr/src/linux and
make mrproper make deps make modules install (and of course hello.c would have to be added to the kernel modules source code and appropriate headers added.) Do not do this... Hello.c does not have to be part of the kernel. Use the linker to make an executable from hello.o and then run it. Civileme
