I have never actually tried that at all myself (using Debian).
Everything I have done with both the TS7200 and TS7250 have been
booting to the onboard flash and just using FTP or NFS to get my
files onto the onboard. I have done all my compiling using cross
compilers on a Redhat 9 system. So unfortunately I have no
experience in the methods that you are trying.

Also, I have only ever compiled the driver on kernels up to 2.4.26-
TS10 version, so I guess there could be some differences, but
usually there isn't a lot that changes between TS releases, so I
doubt that.

Unfortunately, all I can suggest is that it is something to do with
compiler settings, directory locations, etc. May I suggest that you
first find a basic kernel module example (try the Linux Device
Drivers book) to see if you can get any sought of module code to
compile, and then go from there. I would guess once you were able to
get the build system working, the driver will just compile without
too many problems.
Maybe there are other people that have more experience compiling
modules/driver in a similar environment to what you are using?
Cheers
Phil
