 I agree a little with Sriram, The INSTALL file should be modified:
 " The make should be as root, else the first step fails to not have
 permission to create a file". It works for me only there is a multiple
 definition error for comedi_debug in comedidev.h:

*********
#ifdef CONFIG_COMEDI_DEBUG
extern int comedi_debug;
#else
const int comedi_debug = 0;
#endif
**************
 from the last five code lines it should be only problem if it is defined
 as: "const int comedi_debug = 0;" in case of
 CONFIG_COMEDI_DEBUG is not defined, but setting it during "make config"
 will not solve the problem, so I changed  the five lines to only one
line:
**********
extern int comedi_debug;
*********
which solve the multiple definition error .
