In a terminal, cd into the folder that you extracted from the tarball and, while in root, type
Code:

./configure
This will generate your makefile (usually).

I would say that creating a make file is way more than a newbie task.

One usually uses the make file that comes with some package.

Why do you want to make a make file?

Writing a Makefile, etc. etc.

and this one is for understanding the Kernel Makefiles: http://www.ravnborg.org/kbuild/makefiles.html

This should be followed only after going through the 'eng.hawaii' link, posted above.
