Install Modem Error ! Help!


I want to install my Modem driver. it seems hard to make it.

I followed these steps


Code:
Installation
============

1. Unpack tar.gz package file:

	$ gzip -dc slmodem-2.9.X.tar.gz | tar xf -

2. 'cd' to package directory:

	$ cd slmodem-2.9.X

3. Review and edit 'Makefile' (if need):

   In many cases you will need to correct path to your local kernel
   source tree:

        KERNEL_DIR=/path/to/linux

   Default KERNEL_DIR is '/lib/modules/<kerne-version>/build'. Many Linux
   Distributions use directory '/usr/src/linux-<version>' also.

   Note: If you are using Linux kernel 2.4, only header files should be
         available for build in $(KERNEL_DIR)/include

   Another way to pass right value KERNEL_DIR is to use command line
   parameter while running 'make':

        $ make KERNEL_DIR=/path/to/linux ...

4. Run 'make' command to compile package:

	$ make

5. Install. As 'root' user run:

	# make install

   It will install:

   - application 'slmodemd' under '/usr/sbin' directory

   - hardware specific drivers (kernel modules) 'slamr' and 'slusb'
     under conventional kernel modules directory

   - character device nodes '/dev/slamr0-3' with major number 212
     (for pci modems) and '/dev/slusb0-3' with major number 213
     (for usb modems).

   - config modules for autoloading (by editing file '/etc/modules.conf')
     (only with 2.4 kernels)

6. Config modem country.

   Use AT+GCI=<T.35 country code> command to setup country.

   Also you can setup default modem country by passing command line
   parameter '--country=MY_COUNTRY' to program 'slmodemd'.

   See output of 'slmodemd --countrylist' for a list of supported
   country names and T.35 country codes (see also 'slmodemd --help').

   Note: Command ATI7 shows currently installed country setting.

8. Uninstallation.

   In package directory just type:

	# make uninstall

choked at here:

Code:
make KERNEL_DIR=/lib/modules/2.6.15-1.2054_FC5/bulid/

thanks in adv.
