Paul Menzel 72ef8881a3 libpayload, superiotool: README: Prepend coreboot/ to path of change directory line
Nico Huber spotted [1], that commit (4d6ab4e2) [1] updating
superiotools’s `README` with the Git command line

    superiotool: Update README with Git repository URL and directory location

missed, that after `git clone` one sitll has to change into
the cloned directory.

So prepend the path with `coreboot/` to fix that. The same error
happened in the commit (e1ea5151) for libpayload [2]

    libpayload: Update README with Git repository URL and directory location

and is fixed in this patch too.

libpayload README
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
libpayload is a minimal library to support standalone payloads
that can be booted with firmware like coreboot. It handles the setup
code, and provides common C library symbols such as malloc() and printf().
Note: This is _not_ a standard library for use with an operating system,
rather it's only useful for coreboot payload development!
See http://coreboot.org for details on coreboot.
Installation
------------
$ git clone http://review.coreboot.org/p/coreboot.git
$ cd coreboot/payloads/libpayload
$ make menuconfig
$ make
$ sudo make install (optional, will install into /opt per default)
As libpayload is for 32bit x86 systems only, you might have to install the
32bit libgcc version, otherwise your payloads will fail to compile.
On Debian systems you'd do 'apt-get install gcc-multilib' for example.
Usage
-----
Here's an example of a very simple payload (hello.c) and how to build it:
#include <libpayload.h>
int main(void)
{
printf("Hello, world!\n");
return 0;
}
Building the payload using the 'lpgcc' compiler wrapper:
$ lpgcc -o hello.elf hello.c
Please see the sample/ directory for details.
Website and Mailing List

The main website is http://www.coreboot.org/Libpayload.
