+
+### Setup a build environment
+
+ sudo apt-get install build-essential git-core subversion libncurses5-dev zlib1g-dev gawk flex libssl-dev gcc-multilib bzip2 g++ util-linux intltool patch python-dev sdcc wget unzip zlib-dev
+ ./scripts/feeds update
+ ./scripts/feeds install
+ rm .config
+ ln -s rooter.config .config
+
+
+Check for any stray missing dependancies:
+
+ make prereq
+
+### Making simple changes
+
+To include programs which are already packaged for OpenWRT:
+
+ make menuconfig # look TODO:
+
+To add kernel modules which are already OpenWRT packaged:
+
+ make menuconfig # look in "Kernel modules --->" menu
+
+To add other kernel settings:
+
+ make kernel_menuconfig CONFIG_TARGET=subtarget
+
+### Do a single-package build
+
+Eg, for lxc:
+
+ make package/lxc/compile
+ make package/lxc/install
+ make package/index
+
+### Do a full image build
+
+ # these seem to be required... a bug?
+ ./scripts/feeds install libattr
+ ./scripts/feeds install libcap
+ ./scripts/feeds install lxc
+ make package/libattr/install
+ make package/libcap/install
+ make package/lxc/install
+ # to ensure configuration is up to date
+ make menuconfig
+ # do it!
+ make -j 3 # or higher for many-core machines
+
