Make Error

[winewise]

this is the error that I get following download
pi@raspberrypi:~/rtl8723au $ make
make ARCH=armv6l CROSS_COMPILE= -C /lib/modules/4.1.18+/build M=/home/pi/rtl8723au modules
make[1]: *** /lib/modules/4.1.18+/build: No such file or directory. Stop.

uname -r gives this 4.1.18+

You need to install the kernel headers. Directory /lib/modules/4.1.18+/build must be a link to the directory containing either the kernel source code, or at least the include directory with the headers used to build that kernel.

Does not fix the issue. I might have installed the wrong headers. Please see below: pberrypi:~/rtl8723au $ sudo apt-get install raspberrypi-kernel-headers Reading package lists...

Build is correct. What does 'll /usr/src/linux-headers-4.4.38+/' show? It should have a directory "include".

I had almost the same problem with last raspbian lite (stretch) and kernel 4.9.80+

Makefile:629: arch/armv6l/Makefile: No such file or directory

I check the folder include ls /usr/src/linux-headers-4.9.80+/include/
there are a lot of folder inside acpi, crypto, etc...

I solved with this by-pass
sudo ln -s /usr/src/linux-headers-4.9.80+/arch/arm /usr/src/linux-headers-4.9.80+/arch/armv6l
