Problem with "make install"

You have to configure your kernel as well. I see the message about 
missing symbol 'create_proc_entry' that meens that you kerenl config 
does not include the proc file system.
So configure your kernel with the right components, like network 
support, wireless LAN etc and then try it again.
You can run a depmod -ae by hand instead of the make install.
