Hello all! I've got a Pocket Beagle running "Linux beagle bone 
4.9.83-ti-r104 #1 SMP PREEMP", I would like to change the kernel 
configuration to include support for the Realtek RTL8821AE WiFi driver. I 
see the option to load the driver in the Network Device Support section of 
the kernel config menu, but I am not able to compile the kernel using the 
normal Debian steps. I have installed "linux-headers-4.9.83.ti-r104" in 
"/usr/src", and am able to get the config menu by running "make menuconfig" 
from in that directory. However, when I try to compile the kernel with 
"make all", I get the following error:

debian@beaglebone:/usr/src/linux-headers-4.9.83-ti-r104$ sudo make all
scripts/kconfig/conf  --silentoldconfig Kconfig
  CHK     include/config/kernel.release
  CHK     include/generated/uapi/linux/version.h
  CHK     include/generated/utsrelease.h
make[1]: *** No rule to make target 'arch/arm/tools/gen-mach-types', needed 
by 'include/generated/mach-types.h'.  Stop.
arch/arm/Makefile:320: recipe for target 'archprepare' failed
make: *** [archprepare] Error 2
debian@beaglebone:/usr/src/linux-headers-4.9.83-ti-r104$ sudo make 
menuconfig
scripts/kconfig/mconf  Kconfig


*** End of the configuration.
*** Execute 'make' to start the build or try 'make help'.

I am not able to get "make clean" to work, so I suspect I'm not doing it 
right. This is what I see: 

make clean
[sudo] password for debian: 
scripts/Makefile.clean:14: drivers/gpu/drm/nouveau/Makefile: No such file 
or directory
make[4]: *** No rule to make target 'drivers/gpu/drm/nouveau/Makefile'. 
 Stop.

failed
make[3]: *** [drivers/gpu/drm/nouveau] Error 2
scripts/Makefile.clean:88: recipe for target 'drivers/gpu/drm' failed
make[2]: *** [drivers/gpu/drm] Error 2

make[1]: *** [drivers/gpu] Error 2
Makefile:1294: recipe for target '_clean_drivers' failed
make: *** [_clean_drivers] Error 2




Is there a tutorial somewhere on how to compile the kernel from the headers 
after changing the kernel configuration? Does anyone have any thoughts?

Thanks,

Joe
