Minor oddities in installation instructions #4

Closed rien333 closed 4 years ago

rien333 commented 4 years ago

First, thanks so much for this great project! Precisely what I wanted :)

Second, I noticed two (really small) oddities in the installation instructions. First of all, your CROSS_TC? refers to a 32 bit binary. Is your PC really that old? Or is there a reason for using it? Second, and more importantly, your otherwise detailed installation instructions miss a call to git submodule update --init --recursive (or something similar). Just pointing out some stuff so that this project will succeed, and scare away the least amount of people possible.

Thanks again!

Hi, great to hear you find this useful too! :)

Nope, a real nice x64 machine... never noticed that. The 32bit binaries seem to work fine though :). I replaced them with the apt binaries in the Makefile, maybe that makes things easier in general.

Good one, thank you very much for you suggestions!
