[Libre-soc-dev] Introduction: Hello Everyone

[Thomas Stephens]

If anyone is following along, I did run all the commands from this
page on my Linux Mint installation.

https://libre-soc.org/HDL_workflow/devscripts/

I figured it's Ubuntu Based, which is Debian based, so what could go wrong!



I was moderately successful, and now have a huuuge happy terminal full
of output to analyze.

Everything seemed to execute without crashing, I was just blasting
through them to see if I could get something up and running.

Is there anything I can do to test that I did everything correctly?
