Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/s3fs-fuse/s3fs-fuse/issues/287

Hi all,
I'm new to s3fs-fuse. After I follow the "Installation" section (on README.md) to do "make", it showed the results as follows, which seems to do nothing because of the message "Nothing to be done for 'all' ".

I'm not sure it is successful or not? If not, what the problems may be?

The system setting are:
Host: Win 8.1 64-bit
Guest: Ubuntu 14.04 on VirtualBox 4.3.30

@chasego make does "incremental builds" -- it won't re-run steps if they aren't necesary. What you pasted looks like the results of running make again after a successful build has already occured. You can verify this by checking for the existence of src/s3fs, which is the executable created by make. You can also ask make to install the s3fs exectuable for you:

sudo make install

I verified the existence of src/s3fs

Then I typed sudo make install. It seems that there's no problem. But I'd like to make sure because of Nothing to be done. However, based on your explanation, it should be OK.
