How to install without make?

I am working with a BeagleBoard and I have already compiled ZMQ library with arm-linux-gnueabi gcc compiler. The problem is I don't know where to copy all that files because I don't have make command nor I am able to install it.

If I run:

uname -mrs

I get:

Linux 3.2.8-mg01.3 armv7l

Thanks in advance!

Build & install required library on your build machine:

./configure --prefix=/custom/location
make && make install

And then just copy /custom/location from your build machine to the target machine's root /.
You need to check that no stuff are being overwritten (or at least that no dependencies got lost).

Another, correct way, would be to create an installable package (i.e., deb or rpm), but that is a different question.
