Hello, I checked it out, turns out that while build is pointing to /usr/src/linux2. 4.18-14, there is no file by that name in the /usr/directory. In fact, there is only a single item there, a directory called redhat, with four empty subdirectories. This is highly mysterious to me... this is a fresh RH 8.0 install. Any ideas on this aspect? This would seem to be where the crux of the issue lies...
