If I remember correctly, the typical install issue on Ubuntu/Debian is that these systems don't come with the zlib development header files preinstalled. Try to install zlib1g-dev using the Software Center or apt-get before running samtools make. Besides, Peter is right and you should really post the error message you are getting.
