What didn't work?

Driver is failing to install. I had previously cloned repo on my system, with which I was successfully able to install the driver on the Fedora 26 and 27, I used the same version in Fedora 28. But it failed with error metioned in Error Code section.

What did you try?

I tried installing with previously cloned repo, didn't install. Firstly, I ran make, failed with similar error as in ERROR CODE section. Then I tried installing after dkms, and again the same errors.

I cloned the repo again, made install, uninstall, executable, ran make, ./install, and the errors were same as mentioned in the error code.

I have to admit I was pretty careless after it failed the first time. It's actually a fresh install and I am positive I haven't messed around anywhere.

Error code:

make -C /lib/modules/4.16.3-301.fc28.x86_64/build M=/home/ajit/MT7630E/rt2x00 modules
make[1]: *** /lib/modules/4.16.3-301.fc28.x86_64/build: No such file or directory.  Stop.
make: *** [Makefile:9: all] Error 2

These two directories look really odd inside lib/mobules/uname -r/
