I guess we could give you the same answer: You can figure it out.

The only thing I can understand from your first post is that you want the "make" application binary that will run on your kindle.

It is much easier if you just use a pre-built binary rather than try to compile the source yourself.

Here is one:
http://packages.debian.org/testing/devel/make

Page all the way down, pick your native language for the page, read the page, and if that is what you want ....
Download the package listed for "armel" from the list.

You will find the directions on how to extract the application binary indexed in our master index tools page.

You will need a couple of tools (ar, tar, gunzip most likely) that are not on the kindle.

You have a choice on those -
Google and install them for the OS that you do have, OR
Download and burn to CD a "Linux LiveCD" and do your un-packaging work while running that.

There are hundreds of "Linux LiveCD"s to choose from, the recommended one for someone with zero Linux/Unix experience is:

These "LiveCD" distributions run memory resident, they do not touch the file system on the computer that is running them.
In your case, you will want to setup a "persistent storage" for the LiveCD - there are easy directions included on the LiveCD.
Just download, burn, and boot it.
