"make install" error

[starr2girl]

I need help.  I installed Kubuntu and everything works great...except...
I decided to hook up my webcam.  I found that i needed gcc and build-essentials to build the driver and anyway, finally got it to "make" after much time of troubleshooting.  Now, the next instruction says to type "make install" and when I do, i get the following error

root@freda:/home/freda/ov511-2.30# make install
./do_install.sh *.ko
/bin/sh: ./do_install.sh: /bin/sh: bad interpreter: Permission denied
make: *** [install] Error 126


what am i doing wrong,why won't it install??  Any help would be appreciated, as I have searched for an answer for hours and cannot find one....

Re: "make install" error

For final installation of software built from source you need root priviledges (to create the executable or library file in the appropriate system directory).

Try 'sudo make install' and see if that works.
