Subject: [Buildroot] installing kernel modules fails due to not existing

Dear buildrootmailinglist,

I wasn't able to run a simple make with linux kernel 2.6.33.X (same 
version as headers). It was not possible to install the modules.

The reason might be this:
WARNING: Couldn't open directory 
..buildroot-dev/output/target/lib/modules/2.6.33.5: No such file or 
directory

This directory is indeed not there, but I found:
ossy at debian-virtual:~/buildroot/buildroot-dev/output/target/lib/modules$ ll
drwxr-xr-x 3 ossy ossy 86 15. Jun 14:06 
2.6.33.5-dockstarViaBR-00109-g5fd095b-dirty
So how do I make sure to use 2.6.33.5 and not the git-generated name?
Or is it the script which should use the git-generated name?

I tried to create a link, but it was removed after running make.

Thanks for your help.


Kind regards,
Marcus
