[PATCH] linux-custom: fix for kernels without modules

[PATCH] linux-custom: fix for kernels without modules

[Cedric Hombourger]

build-kernel.sh would try to create a .fresh_install file in the
/lib/modules/${PV} folder to replicate Debian's postinst magic
but would fail when the custom kernel is configured without any
modules. Create /lib/modules/${PV} before .fresh_install to make
sure its target directory exists.

Makes sense, looks good.
