Do not add spaces after -D option:

$ cmake -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=RELEASE -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/usr/local <path to opencv>

I don't understand why the install tutorial shows "SPACE". Oh well. Thanks. That fixed it. For others, this video was also useful. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6jSPoBgQPMI Thanks Vladislav! Dunno if tip is available?
