Rere-ran it but this time with the words in the correct order and it worked.

I ran it again with modules_install just to be sure and still got the same error message: bash-4.3$ make O=/home/nathanael/Kernel-5.6.0/ install_modules install make[1]: Entering directory '/home/nathanael/Kernel-5.6.0' make[1]: *** No rule to make target 'install_modules'. Stop. make[1]: Leaving directory '/home/nathanael/Kernel-5.6.0' Makefile:180: recipe for target 'sub-make' failed make: *** [sub-make] Error 2 If you have any other suggestions or resources that would be much appreciated.
