Is there source missing?


I am attempting to build the Slackware Installer

Within the build_installer.sh : Build the Slackware installer from scratch (multiple architectures) written by Stuart Winter, and Eric Hameleers

The script crashed when looking for arm/installer-patches/setkernel, arm/rc.modules-arm, arm/installer-patches/slackinstall-logerror.diff, I have not been able to find this $SRCDIR/arm directory?

Code:
    # Apply ARM patches to the installer scripts:
    #
    # We don't need to set a Kernel for Slackware ARM yet, as the boot loader config is usually
    # out of reach of the OS and needs to be configured independently.
    install -${VERBOSE1}pm755 $SRCDIR/arm/installer-patches/setkernel usr/lib/setup/SeTkernel

    # Load Kernel modules required for filesystems and so on.
    sed -i '\?^#.*!/bin/? a\/etc/rc.d/rc.modules-arm' etc/rc.d/rc.S
    install -${VERBOSE1}pm755 $SRCDIR/arm/rc.modules-arm etc/rc.d/

    # Set the system clock from the hardware clock before fudging the date
    # since on ARM the system clock is not automatically set on all devices.
    sed -i '/^touch \/.today/ a/sbin/hwclock --hctosys' etc/rc.d/rc.S

    # Log errors into /tmp on the root filesystem.  This helps the development
    # process -- sometimes the doinst.sh scripts bail out because of a missing
    # dependency (or sometimes a package just needs a recompile).
    patch ${VERBOSETXT} -p0 < $SRCDIR/arm/installer-patches/slackinstall-logerror.diff || exit 1

    # On some ARM devices there is no RTC so it's best to disable the
    # fsck checks on the filesystems.
    install -${VERBOSE1}pm755 $SRCDIR/arm/armedslack-nofscheck usr/lib/setup/
    patch ${VERBOSETXT} -p0 < $SRCDIR/arm/installer-patches/SeTpartitions-add-nofscheck.diff || exit 1
Is there source missing? Is this depreciated? I have not been able to find setkernel, rc.modules-arm, or other files from within this portion of the build script.

The ARM bits are not currently available. There's quite a bit of work involved to upstream them, so there's no ETA.
