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'.

Re: Trouble Installing Compiled Kernel
Hey, I think you want modules_install instead of install_module -Marcelo On Wed, Mar 25, 2020 at 12:23 PM Nathanael J Grix wrote: > > Hi, > I recently decided to try and make contributions to the kernel.

Trouble Installing Compiled Kernel
Hi, I recently decided to try and make contributions to the kernel. I normally just use windows as my operating system so I decided to set up Slackware to develop on. I thought a good place to start would to actually compile the kernel and install it before I actually make any changes. I ran: make O=/home/nathanael/KernelBuild localmodconfig make O=/home/nathanael/KernelBuild After getting it compiled I ran: bash-4.3$ sudo make O=/home/nathanael/KernelBuild/ install_module install but got this error: make[1]: Entering directory '/home/nathanael/KernelBuild' make[1]: *** No rule to make target 'install_module'. Stop. make[1]: Leaving directory '/home/nathanael/KernelBuild' Makefile:180: recipe for target 'sub-make' failed make: *** [sub-make] Error 2 I have tried looking around but haven't found anything that has been particularly useful in figuring this out. I am not sure what info might be relevant so I'll just let you know that I'm on Slackware 14.2 and trying to upgrade the Kernel from 4.4.208 to 5.6.0 and I am using ELILO instead of LILO. If anyone has any suggestions or can even just direct me to some resources that might have more info on what is going on with make install_module or the error that would be sick.
