I got that instructions from...
http://www.goosee.com/puppy/development/compilekernel.htm

Is this what I have to do to get "make" on my shell?

Ummmmmmm


Those instructions are for compiling a kernel for puppy on another distro...


Puppy does not come with the tools to compile programs..

Go back and read the page over and over as it appears you've missed the whole thing.....

make is only a utility that runs all the compiling commands, make alone will not allow you to generate a program
