   mount /dev/cdrom /mnt/cd
   unpack
   ./vmware-install.pl

   sudo apt-get install re2c texlive libelf1 mc cmake
   sudo apt-get install linux-headers-$(uname -r)

8. Remove libicu-dev if it's installed, it stopped PHP compilation:
   sudo apt-get remove libicu-dev

9. Install i386 elf1 packages:
   sudo dpkg --add-architecture i386
   sudo apt-get update
   sudo apt-get install libelf1:i386 libelf-dev:i386

10. Clone/download repository:
    git clone https://bitbucket.org/pedro311/freshtomato-arm.git

11. Edit profile file:
    PATH="$PATH:/home///release/src-rt-6.x.4708/toolchains/hndtools-arm-linux-2.6.36-uclibc-4.5.3/bin"
    PATH="$PATH:/sbin"

12. Reboot system

13. Add your email to git config:
    git config --global user.email ""
    or
    git config user.email ""
    for a single repo

    git config --global user.name

HOW TO COMPILE

1. Change dir to git repository ie: $ cd /freshtomato-arm
2. Before every compilation, use $ git clean -fdxq && git reset --hard
3. To compile SDK6 image, use: $ git checkout arm-master then: $ cd release/src-rt-6.x.4708, check for possible targets: $ make help, use one (RT-N18U/AC56S without SMP build AIO): $ make n18z
4. To compile SDK7 image, use: $ git checkout arm-sdk7 then: $ cd release/src-rt-7.x.main/src, check for possible targets: $ make help, use one (RT-AC3200 build AIO): $ make ac3200z
