Author *** No rule to make target

I am attempting to compile cdrtools-2.00.3.tar.gz per in structions in
xcdroast-0.98alpha15.tar.gz README and I am receiving the following
error message when I perform the following:

[root@dc-afam-02 local]# tar zxfv
sas/dlz/lin-appz/CDR/cdrtools-2.00.3.tar.gz
[root@dc-afam-02 local]# cd /usr/local/cdrtools-2.00.3
[root@dc-afam-02 cdrtools-2.00.3]# make
<snip>
[root@dc-afam-02 cdrtools-2.00.3]# make INS_BASE/usr/local install
make: *** No rule to make target `INS_BASE/usr/local'. Stop.

please forgive me if this is a newb question but how do I get around this?

As always TIA for any "USEFUL" assistance =)

Is there no configure script inside the sources? Normally it would be
those steps

1) untar source.tar.gz
2) ./configure --any_options
3) make
4) make install

In my other experiences with compiling this is true, this perhaps is the
exception. When I run ./configure I get the following output:

[root@dc-afam-02 cdrtools-2.00.3]# ./configure
configure is no longer used - just type "make", supported make programs are:

smake - The Schily smake program
This is the preferred make program, the source
can be
found on ftp://ftp.berlios.de/pub/smake/alpha/

Smake is the only make program with automake features,
it is
the only program that works on unknown platforms.

make - SunPRO make (on SunOS/Solaris only)
in /usr/bin/ (SunOS 4.x) or /usr/ccs/bin/ (Solaris)

gmake - GNU make
GNU make will not work correctly on all platforms
and due to some conceptional bugs output several
error messages that are not related to the makefile
system but to GNU make (see README.gmake)

Other make programs will not work, for more information read README.compile

If you have problems and if you are in doubt, try to use smake
Always compile the latest version that can be found on:
ftp://ftp.berlios.de/pub/smake/alpha/

[root@dc-afam-02 cdrtools-2.00.3]#

and these are instructions I was refering to in my last post:

- Install cdrecord, mkisofs, cdda2wav and readcd:

See the cdrtools documentation about details.

Example under Linux:

tar xvfz cdrtools-2.00.3.tar.gz
cd cdrtools-2.00.3
make
make INS_BASE=/usr/local install

(If you dont set INS_BASE when doing "make install" the cdrtools will
install themselves to /opt/schily.)

X-CD-Roast looks for the cdrtools first in
$PREFIX/lib/xcdroast-0.98/bin
($PREFIX is /usr/local if you dont changed it) and if it does not find
them it tries $PREFIX/bin (or whatever you configured as
cdrtools-prefix).

Don't make links to the cdrtools because then the activation of the
non-root-mode will fail. Please copy the binaries instead.

Please help

I guess that it is obvious that I am not an expert or a programmer.
I'm just a linux user who sometimes lacks attention to detail. Thanks
for your attention to detail it works now, btw I guess I don't have to
tell you how small I feel...

Thanks again

Cheers =)

Hey We all once begun very small. When your Ma brought you to the
world, did you be that experienced already with normal life as today?

Read, read, read and use your mind ... one day you are a big *NIX profi.
