assuming you have a kernel source or just kernel headers in
/usr/local/src/linux-2.6.7-1 ( or whatever its called )

cd /lib/modules/2.6.7-1/
ln -s ../../../usr/local/src/linux-2.6.7-1 build

2.6.7-1 must match exactly

OK. I did this and verified that blah/build is linked to the kernel-source folder. I still get the same error....
Does the link need to point to a file or folder within the folder that the source was untared to?

More help?

OK. I found a possible problem. The makefile in ndiswrapper folder cd's to

blah/ndiswrapper-0.10/drivers then runs make again. the makefile in this folder calls /lib/modules/2.6.7-1-386/include/version.h,  which does not exist. the folder is there, but not the file. Could this be my7 problem? Should version.h be there?
