+Build instructions for KARO specific RedBoot under Linux
+========================================================
+
+1. Prerequisites:
+-----------------
+
+- Make sure the gcc cross-compiler 'arm-linux-gcc' is installed and
+  can be found via the PATH environment variable
+- Determine what configuration (.ecc files in redboot/config/) is
+  required for the board that you want to program (see the file
+  'readme.txt' in the RedBoot directory of the Starterkit CD.)
+
+2. Configuring Redboot:
+-----------------------
+- Either edit the corresponding .ecc file or use the graphical
+  configuration tool installed under redboot/tools/bin/configtool to
+  modify and save the configuration settings.
+
+3. Compiling Redboot:
+---------------------
+- enter the base directory 'redboot' of the redboot source tree
+- run sh build.sh [config[.ecc]] to build all or one specific
+  configuration
+
+
+The binary file that should be programmed into the flash rom of the
+Triton module is the '.bin' file that can be found under
+build/<config_name>/<config_name>_install/bin/
