Cannot install fonts on FreeBSD due to a permission problem

Hello there, I have been building X-Server 1.5.1 on FreeBSD 7.0 and I've
managed to build all prerequisites for X and X now tries to start,
however at the end I realised that I had forgotten to install the fonts,
but now when I try to install the fonts(any font for that matter), I get
the error:-
make install-data-hook
PATHTOFONTS:Permission Denied
**** Error code 1

Can someone please tell me what I am doing wrong here or be so kind as
to point me in the right direction?

Thanks in advance.

Regards,
Pramod Dematagoda
