This should be (without < > brackets):

make fs/dcache.s

or whatever directory it (dcache.c) is in.

| So obviously I'm not understanding your use of the <> arrows yet.

They just bracket metadata or descriptive terms. Take out the
angle brackets when you substitute live words there.

|
| And, I've got a tail running on the log in another window.
