First, no need to run make as root, just make

Second, there is no error message. In Linux as long as the command runs without errors there may be no message.

To see if it worked, run ls again.

I see .bin files so it appears make worked just fine.

Now run sudo make install

you need sudo to install as these are system files.

When in doubt, read the README and/or MAKEFILE, the make file is plain text

EDIT - you are already root, so no need for sudo at all. Why are you running as root ?

Last it appears you are not running ubuntu ;)
