Can't you just type "make install", and let 'make' work out that it needs to
do the build before it can do the install?

I don't build Rockbox in this way, so I can't be sure, but that works with
other applications I'm familiar with.

'Make' knows what's needed to create something, whether that's to build it or
to install it, and it should follow the dependencies through from start to
finish.

Antony.
