You don't need to set KERN_DIR manually if you have the right kernel-devel and kernel-headers packages installed.

Excelelnt.
So I re read the install.log file and saw the gcc errors indicating that it wasn't installed.
My original log file didn't indicate that so I just assumed it was there.
also originally I did not install the headers files.
so having installed the kernel-devel and the kernel-headers AND GCC I just got it working.
Fantastic!

Hey I was having this problem with Fedora 13 "out of the box" finally got my head out of my butt and gave it the directory it was looking for... in my case I just needed to type: export KERN_DIR=/usr/src/kernels/`uname -r`
Cheers
