did you read the manual 'R Installation and Administration'?
see section 2.2 there.
it is mentioned there that you need makeinfo version 4.7 or later for the
manuals in info format.
(No, this is not circular; you don't have to build the manuals first to be
able to read them. Check www.r-project.org -> Manuals).

I guess several other things are not available either on your computer. For
example section 2.1 of the aforementioned manual points out that you need
Perl 5.

Hope this helps,
Roland
