hello all,

i seem to be getting stuck right at the beginning of attempting to install 
mysql!

I have downloaded 3.23.42.tar.gz and then I perform the following commands as 
instructed in the manual...

tar -zxvf mysql-3.23.42.tar.gz
cd mysql-3.23.42
./configure --prefix=/usr/local/mysql --localstatedir=/var/mysql

everything seems to work fine but when i try to type 

make && make install

as instructed it comes back with this:

make: *** No targets specified and no makefile found.  Stop.

I am on the latest version of mandrake, 

i would really appreciate some helpful pointers :-)

thanks for your time
