Gentlemen;
Forgive a newbie seeking instruction
but I have a question about "running make". I have been trying to install
an upgrade of lilo to my system but have been stymied by "make". The
instructions for the upgrade write I should download the tar.gz file, extract it
to a named directory, run make and then make install. The first two steps
are no problem. It is the latter two. It appears that I should
simply type "make" and viola, a compiled program. Rather I get errors such
as "no target" etc. I have read through the make.html page at gnu.org and
the GNU Make Manual. I understand what make is supposed to do, I just
can't seem to get it to do it. Are there more step by step instructions
available? (Sorry for the hand holding request). Any guidance or
assistance you can provide would be greatly appreciated. Thanx in
advance.
