	I stumbled into this same err a week or so ago.  The upshot 
	of my experience is that when your

	  # make buildkernel installkernel KERNEL=GENERIC

	completes, the kernel objects (*.ko files) will be in your
	root directory, in /modules.

	In other words, the UPDATING file is incorrect.  I made changes
	to UPDATING and sent the maintainer a patch, but evidently he
	hasn't seen fit to use my patch.

	PS: Fellow engineer Sean O'Connell at Duke helped  me out ...
	    I'm just sharing along the assist.
