Kernel 2.6.0-test3: make modules; make modules_install problems

[M M]

I have downloaded kernel 2.6.0-test3 sources twice (in
case of error) and the problem still persists.  'make
modules' compiles the modules to *.o, but 'make
modules_install' expects them to be *.ko.  Am I the
only one with this problem or does everyone have this
problem?

  The 2.6.0-test need a new package for get work,
it is module-init-tools. Google for it.

  Good luck.

make modules

should show some lines like the following ...

  CC      drivers/block/loop.mod.o
  LD [M]  drivers/block/loop.ko

where the last line is the conversion to .ko 

if your build doesn't do that, I would verify
your utilities ... maybe they are not recent enough?

HTH,
Herbert

I don't see that.
