From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (compatible; Konqueror/3.2; Linux) (KHTML, like Gecko) Description of problem: Running "make fs/coda/", as listed in help, builds object files, but not installable modules.

Actual Results: Code gets compiled. Expected Results: Code compiles, then is linked to create a loadable module. Additional info: Also, the relationship between /lib/modules/2.6.8-1.521/build and /usr/src/linux-2.6.8-1.521 is confusing.
make help doesn't mention that it should build the modules. (nor should it, its done at a different stage) if you want this to change, take it up with upstream.
