i'd say you're missing a makefile - or you've copied someone elses, and have no idea what you're doing

Your $PS2SDK is empty. You can tell by it trying to access '/samples/Makefile.pref'.

Reread the instructions that came with your toolchain installation, specifically the part about environment variables.

It is trying to access '$PS2SDK/samples/Makefile.pref'. Usually if $PS2SDK is set properly it will look in '/usr/local/ps2dev/ps2sdk/samples/Makefile.pref'. Since your $PS2SDK isn't set, or is empty, it is looking in '/samples/Makefile.pref'.

Reread the part in the README.TXT about setting the proper environment variables.
