Namely, I build kernels on one box, with 'make O=<target>', then I mount <target> on another one over NFS, 'cd' to it and try to install the kernel modules with 'make modules_install'. This results in 'HOSTCC firmware/ihex2fw' and 'fatal error: ...: Read-only file system'. It's readily reproducible. Commenting out line 1130 of Makefile ("$(Q)$(MAKE) -f $(srctree)/scripts/Makefile.fwinst obj=firmware __fw_modinst") obviously helps, so it looks like Makefile.fwinst needs fixing.
