What is the actual issue that you have, which makes you think that you need to run "makemigrations"?

As the message says, "makemigrations" is for people developing the Netbox code itself. If you are not a developer working on Netbox, you should not be using this command. If you are a Netbox developer, then you will know what this command does and how to bypass that restriction.
