Well, I'm not an expert with everything make. But I can say that . . . *CC=/usr/local/arm/3.3.2/bin/**arm-linux-gcc *is the path to the gcc executable. That is, the path that the person who wrote all this expects. For the beaglebone debian images. this is probably be wrong.
So, what you need to learn, is how gcc, and make work. Probably more importantly gcc, and the different gcc version for different platforms. Also, you need to understand what an ABI is, and how it applies to the beaglebone black. For instance if I were to guess at what you've posted so far. I would guess that this person was talking about something armel. Which is soft floating point. To make something like this work on the beaglebone black, you'd need armhf - Which is hard float ABI. Maybe the code will compile directly on a beaglebone black with a few adjustments to the makefile, and with the correct toolchain installed. This I do not know. You also wont know until you try.
