Can't build nvidia.ko on MEPIS3.3. Have read /usr.../nvidia-kernelsource/README.deb
 

Thanks for reading.

Summary-
Can't build nvidia.ko kernel package

Intro-
Following the instructions in /usr/share/doc/nvidia-kernelsource/README.debian
Using method 1, installing in /urs/src, the default.
Went through steps 1-4, matched kernels, followed exactly.
Step 5...

Problem -
Unable to build nvidia.ko. Report follows:

root@5[nvidia-kernel]# debian/rules binary_modules
(the command in step 5)

# select which makefile to use.
rm -f /usr/src/modules/nvidia-kernel/nv/Makefile || true
if [ 6 = 6 ]; then \
cd /usr/src/modules/nvidia-kernel/nv ; \
ln -s Makefile.kbuild Makefile ; \
cd .. ; \
if [ 0 = 1 ] ; then \
dpatch apply 04_minion ; \
fi ; \
if [ 0 = 1 ]; then \
dpatch apply 01_sysfs ; \
dpatch status 01_sysfs >patch-stamp ; \
dpatch apply 02_pcialias ; \
dpatch status 02_pcialias >>patch-stamp ; \
