    Yeah, I didn't really want to do this.

    I am building a kernel for another machine.

    To do a modules_install, I need to become root on the compile machine.

    I did not want to do this. I built the kernel as an ordinary user.

    I really do want the modules to install to a directory of my choosing.

    Thanks anyway !
