To me this looks wrong to make a symlink. /usr/src/linux should be a symlink to /usr/src/linux-source-2.6.18 > After that the kernel-sources would be found. But there were many other > failures.

If you do not set it yourself it will default to the kernel you are currently running (via uname). Try to build with: KDIR=/usr/src/linux-source-2.6.18 make KDIR=/usr/src/linux-source-2.6.18 make install Why don't you use the debs from the repository mentioned in the debian howto [1]?
