Failing to build the module on Ubuntu 21.04 (kernel 5.11-0-1005.raspi) #147

Not had any issues building and installing this driver on a CM4 with Ubuntu 20.10(kernel 5.8.0-1019-raspi) but it gives me the error

ERROR (dkms apport): binary package for rtl88x2bu: 5.6.1 not found

When it attempts the dams build section of the build.sh script.

Any help appreciated..

Ah turns out that the build process had failed as the machine only has 1GB of memory and the compile/linker process ran the machine out of disk space.

I adding 4GB of swap temporarily and its succeeded..
