Our installer does _not_ issue 'make mrproper' and I don't see any 'mrproper'
word in your log. What our installer (and /etc/init.d/vboxdrv setup as well)
does is:
* create a temporary directory in /tmp, in your example /tmp/vbox.5
* copy all files there
* build the kernel module by executing
make KBUILD_VERBOSE=1 -C /lib/modules/2.6.23.1-1mdv/build
SUBDIRS=/tmp/vbox.5 SRCROOT=/tmp/vbox.5 modules
in your case
* install the kernel module if the compilation succeeded
* clear the temporary directory
Sorry, I still don't see the problem.
Kind regards,
Frank
