Kernel issue on modules
by business_kid from LinuxQuestions.org on (#51P9G)
New install of Current 03-2020: Slackware kernel sources 5.4.27 & 5.4.30
Compiling a kernel using a config from 5.4.18 & 'make oldconfig' followed by 'make all' succeeds. The 'make modules_install' fails on line 1313, for lack of modules.order.
If I go the other route, make; make modules; make modules install, I have modules.order, so it bales 2 lines later for the lack of modules.builtin.modinfo.
I did go exhaustively through the kernel's ~Documentation/process/Changes.rst and check everything was installed.
Any pointers?
