Namely, I build kernels on a central machine and export the build directory along with the kernel sources over read-only NFS to test boxes. Then, on the test boxes I run "make modules_install", copy the kernel to /boot, run mkinitrd and so on. Now, after your commit above the "make modules_install" command on the test boxes doesn't work any more, because it tries to write to the build directory, which is mounted read-only. Please fix or revert. Rafael
