hi Willy,

An install target for ROS is a long-standing feature request:
https://code.ros.org/trac/ros/ticket/946.  It will come, in ROS 1.5.x.
 In the meantime, you can't easily relocate a built source tree.  To
transfer to another machine, your best bet is to tar up the built
source tree, copy it over, and untar it in the same location in the
filesystem.
