You probably don't have the installation directory in your load-path.
Check with C-h v load-path RET.

In my case, make up2 installed into

    /usr/share/emacs/site-lisp/org

(afaik, that's the case with default values of ``prefix'' and ``DESTDIR'':
the first one is "/usr/share" and the second is undefined in the default 
configuration).
If that's the case with you as well, then you'd have to say

(add-to-list 'load-path "/usr/share/emacs/site-lisp/org")

before

(require 'org-install)
