Presumably there isn't a Makefile in /usr/src/Linux? |

If you've done a "make clean" or something similar in the linux source |
| 21 |
directory (or if you've never built a kernel), you'll have to |
| 22 |
re-generate at least the files required to build modules. Try doing |
| 23 |
"make modules_prepare" in your linux source directory. |

The full story is in |

/usr/src/linux/Documentation/kbuild/modules.txt sectio 2. |
