-Please use "make menuconfig" to configure your appreciated
-configuration for the toolchain and firmware.
+This is the buildsystem for the OpenWrt Linux distribution.
-You need to have installed gcc, binutils, patch, bzip2, flex, bison,
-make, gettext, pkg-config, unzip, libz-dev and libc headers.
+To build your own firmware you need a Linux, BSD or MacOSX system (case
+sensitive filesystem required). Cygwin is unsupported because of the lack
+of a case sensitive file system.
-Simply running 'make' will build your firmware.
-It will download all sources, build the cross-compile toolchain,
-the kernel and all choosen applications.
+You need gcc, binutils, bzip2, flex, python, perl, make, find, grep, diff,
+unzip, gawk, getopt, subversion, libz-dev and libc headers installed.
-You can use scripts/flash.sh for remotely updating your embedded system
-via tftp.
+1. Run "./scripts/feeds update -a" to obtain all the latest package definitions
+defined in feeds.conf / feeds.conf.default
-The buildroot system is documented in docs/buildroot-documentation.html.
+2. Run "./scripts/feeds install -a" to install symlinks for all obtained
+packages into package/feeds/
-Building your own firmware you need to have access to a Linux system.
+3. Run "make menuconfig" to select your preferred configuration for the
+toolchain, target system & firmware packages.
+
+4. Run "make" to build your firmware. This will download all sources, build
+the cross-compile toolchain and then cross-compile the Linux kernel & all
+chosen applications for your target system.
