[vbox-dev] svn 19283: how to build vboxdrv ?

[sean darcy]

After kmk all

out/linux.x86/release/bin/src
  doesn't exist.

cd out/linux.amd64/release/bin/src
bash: cd: out/linux.amd64/release/bin/src: No such file or directory

The only directory under release is obj.

Looking for Makefiles under out/linux.amd64/release:

find . -name Makefile
./obj/VBoxNetAdp-src/Makefile
./obj/vboxdrv-mod/Makefile
./obj/VBoxNetFlt-src/Makefile


but:

[vbox at intel64-office release]$ cd ./obj/vboxdrv-mod

I do have the kernel headers:

locate linux/autoconf.h config/auto.conf | grep 111
/usr/src/kernels/2.6.29.1-111.fc11.x86_64/include/config/auto.conf
/usr/src/kernels/2.6.29.1-111.fc11.x86_64/include/config/auto.conf.cmd
/usr/src/kernels/2.6.29.1-111.fc11.x86_64/include/linux/autoconf.h

So how do we build the kernel modules?
