Quickstart Additional Note #6

Consider adding a note in the section about installing Ghidra to ensure that Ghidra works. In our experience it fails to gather functions if a JDK is not installed with a fairly non-informational error message

Failed to get function information for file Firmware_Slap/examples/upload.cgi

May also consider something in the setup.sh could run some basic check to ensure Ghidra is functional.

I figured this out once I tried to run ghidra.

$ ghidraDebug 
Java runtime not found.  Please refer to the Ghidra Installation Guide's Troubleshooting section.

Installing default-jdk on my ubuntu box then got past the function information.

Thank you, that can be a pretty invisible error.

I added a note to the README in c63767630516ebb11edebf4ca65de5614fadf64b
