Hi mailinglist,

Just for documenting how I worked around this issue:

I omitted the following options in the linux kernel configuration:
CONFIG_LOCALVERSION=""
# CONFIG_LOCALVERSION_AUTO is not set

After that modification, the modules were installed successfully into 
the target/lib/modules-2.6.33.X directory (without local suffix).

Kind regards,
Marcus
