Hoping someone can help me out here. When I invoke the "make ARCH=arm CROSS_COMPILE=arm_v5t_le- INSTALL_MOD_PATH=/home/vadmin/workdir/filesys modules_install" command as per the building the linux kernel section in the DVSDK software setup in Ubuntu, I get the following error:
mkdir: cannot create directory '/home/vadmin/workdir/filesys/lib/modules/2.6.18_pro500-davinci_evm-arm_v5t_le': Permission denied
make: *** [_modinst_] Error 1
It appears to me that the above directory is incorrect, which makes me think either my Rules.make or an environment variable is not set correctly. I've double checked them and AFAIK they are set correctly (ie. as instructed in the setup doc.) I am able to build the hello world app, DVSDK and kernel with no problems. I did notice a discrepancy with the LINUXKERNEL_INSTALL_DIR and EXEC_DIR values in Rules.make and edited it to follow what was specified in the setup doc.
Any suggestions would be appreciated,
Rob
