No, no, include the actual error messages. There's a lot of info hidden
in the compiler error logs. Run make in a window like this
make &> diald_errors
while doing
tail -f diald_errors
in another window.
if you want to run the whole thing in one window, do
touch diald_errors; tail -f diald_errors; make &> diald_errors
At the end, post the contents of diald_errors.

There isn't. Try /usr/src/linux/README

This is ineffective. There are no libraries in /usr/include. Unless
you put them there, which would be a mistake. The -l flag is used with
a directory that contains libraries.

Nope. Never any guarantees, but most work.
