I double checked my config with the guide and it appears everything is
correct. Just in case there is a change that I don't see, here is the
current error message from the start:

If you are using a Linux 2.4 kernel, please make sure
you either have configured kernel sources matching your
kernel or the correct set of kernel headers installed
on your system.
If you are using a Linux 2.6 kernel, please make sure
you have configured kernel sources matching your kernel
installed on your system. If you specified a separate
output directory using either the "KBUILD_OUTPUT" or
the "O" KBUILD parameter, make sure to specify this
directory with the SYSOUT environment variable or with
the equivalent nvidia-installer command line option.
Depending on where and how the kernel sources (or the
kernel headers) were installed, you may need to specify
their location with the SYSSRC environment variable or
the equivalent nvidia-installer command line option.

The part that I notice is this, "*** Unable to determine the target
kernel version. ***" which is odd since my symlink is correct and I have
compiled a nice new kernel. I have not yet booted it tho.
What am I missing here? I have never had this much trouble upgrading a
kernel or nvidia.
Thanks.
