+ Building out-of-tree</h3>
+
+ <p>Buildroot supports building out of tree with a syntax similar
+ to the Linux kernel. To use it, add O=&lt;directory&gt; to the
+ make command line, E.G.:</p>
+
+<pre>
+ $ make O=/tmp/build
+</pre>
+
+ <p>And all the output files will be located under
+ <code>/tmp/build</code>.</p>
