+h2. Initial setup
+
+bc. mkdir openembedded
+cd openembedded
+git clone git://git.linaro.org/openembedded/meta-aarch64.git
+bash meta-aarch64/scripts/init.sh

+p. This will clone all required repositories and does initial setup.

+h2. Do a build
+
+bc. cd openembedded/openembedded-core
+. oe-init-build-env ../build
+bitbake bash
+
+p. Of course you can use other targets instead of "bash". Use "core-image-minimal" to build simple rootfs.
+
+h2. Usable build targets
+
+* core-image-minimal - very minimal rootfs
+* linaro-image-lamp  - LAMP stack
+* linaro-image-sdk   - image with toolchain present
