  == Buildroot quick start
  
  *Important*: you can and should *build everything as a normal user*. There
  is no need to be root to configure and use Buildroot. By running all
  commands as a regular user, you protect your system against packages
  behaving badly during compilation and installation.
  
  The first step when using Buildroot is to create a configuration.
  Buildroot has a nice configuration tool similar to the one you can
  find in the http://www.kernel.org/[Linux kernel] or in
  http://www.busybox.net/[BusyBox].
  
  From the buildroot directory, run
  
  --------------------
   $ make menuconfig
  --------------------
  
  for the original curses-based configurator, or
  
  --------------------
   $ make nconfig
  --------------------
  
  for the new curses-based configurator, or
  
  --------------------
   $ make xconfig
  --------------------
  
  for the Qt-based configurator, or
  
  --------------------
   $ make gconfig
  --------------------
  
  for the GTK-based configurator.
  
  All of these "make" commands will need to build a configuration
  utility (including the interface), so you may need to install
  "development" packages for relevant libraries used by the
  configuration utilities. Refer to xref:requirement[] for more details,
  specifically the xref:requirement-optional[optional requirements]
  to get the dependencies of your favorite interface.
  
  For each menu entry in the configuration tool, you can find associated
  help that describes the purpose of the entry. Refer to xref:configure[]
  for details on some specific configuration aspects.
  
  Once everything is configured, the configuration tool generates a
  +.config+ file that contains the entire configuration. This file will be
  read by the top-level Makefile.
  
  To start the build process, simply run:
  
  --------------------
   $ make
  --------------------
  
  You *should never* use +make -jN+ with Buildroot: top-level parallel
  make is currently not supported. Instead, use the +BR2_JLEVEL+ option
  to tell Buildroot to run the compilation of each individual package
  with +make -jN+.
  
  The `make` command will generally perform the following steps:
  
  * download source files (as required);
  * configure, build and install the cross-compilation toolchain, or
    simply import an external toolchain;
  * configure, build and install selected target packages;
  * build a kernel image, if selected;
  * build a bootloader image, if selected;
  * create a root filesystem in selected formats.
  
  Buildroot output is stored in a single directory, +output/+.
  This directory contains several subdirectories:
  
  * +images/+ where all the images (kernel image, bootloader and root
    filesystem images) are stored. These are the files you need to put
    on your target system.
  
  * +build/+ where all the components are built (this includes tools
    needed by Buildroot on the host and packages compiled for the
    target). This directory contains one subdirectory for each of these
    components.
  
  * +staging/+ which contains a hierarchy similar to a root filesystem
    hierarchy. This directory contains the headers and libraries of the
    cross-compilation toolchain and all the userspace packages selected
    for the target. However, this directory is 'not' intended to be
    the root filesystem for the target: it contains a lot of development
    files, unstripped binaries and libraries that make it far too big
    for an embedded system. These development files are used to compile
    libraries and applications for the target that depend on other
    libraries.
  
  * +target/+ which contains 'almost' the complete root filesystem for
    the target: everything needed is present except the device files in
    +/dev/+ (Buildroot can't create them because Buildroot doesn't run
    as root and doesn't want to run as root). Also, it doesn't have the correct
    permissions (e.g. setuid for the busybox binary). Therefore, this directory
    *should not be used on your target*. Instead, you should use one of
    the images built in the +images/+ directory. If you need an
    extracted image of the root filesystem for booting over NFS, then
    use the tarball image generated in +images/+ and extract it as
    root. Compared to +staging/+, +target/+ contains only the files and
    libraries needed to run the selected target applications: the
    development files (headers, etc.) are not present, the binaries are
    stripped.
  
  * +host/+ contains the installation of tools compiled for the host
    that are needed for the proper execution of Buildroot, including the
    cross-compilation toolchain.
  
  These commands, +make menuconfig|nconfig|gconfig|xconfig+ and +make+, are the
  basic ones that allow to easily and quickly generate images fitting
  your needs, with all the features and applications you enabled.
  
  More details about the "make" command usage are given in
  xref:make-tips[].
