Hello @ubx.

Do you have your arm32v7 device avaliable? Currently we just added a new topic in the page about building the VM for Linux natively using CMake, this way you don't need to rely on Docker to build it. Being the native method on the other hand, means that you'll need to build it on the arm32v7 device, not on your Ubuntu desktop.

We would appreciate feedback on the instructions provided, as well as if it build was successful and if the built-natively VM is working properly.

If, however, building TotalCrossVM natively on your arm device is not an option for you, we humbly request your patience as fixes for the docker scripts are currently WIP and should be out soon.
