 The Local version above will end up making the kernel modules directory be 3.4.35-std342-amd64. The reason the kernel modules directory has to be equal to this is because our directory will be merged into the System Rescue CD later on, so the names need to be exactly the same so that the System Rescue CD system can find our kernel modules.
