your script miss the kernel and kernel module build

to achieve this you can add something like this:

apt-get -y install build-essential bc

cd /usr/src
git clone --depth=1 https://github.com/raspberrypi/linux
ln -s linux $(uname -r)
ln -s /usr/src/linux /lib/modules/$(uname -r)/build

cd linux
wget -O Module.symvers https://raw.githubusercontent.com/raspberrypi/firmware/master/extra/Module.symvers

make bcmrpi_defconfig
make prepare
make modules_prepare
