<heh>

The documentation is very much a work in progress, but what's
available in the form of official docs are in the github repo
(separate from the code):

https://github.com/machinekit/machinekit-docs

Much of this is still from LinuxCNC and while it's getting updated,
given the speed of code changes at the moment the docs are a bit behind.

If you're looking for details on the BBB/Xenomai install, that's not
really within the realm of the Machinekit docs repo.  The best place
to look for the details and "secret sauce" of building a working image
is to actually grab the build scripts from github.  Robert Nelson is
now building the Machinekit images as part of his "universal SoC build
farm", so the Machinekit build scripts are right next to (and
virtually identical to) the scripts used to craft the other BeagleBone
images:

https://github.com/RobertCNelson/omap-image-builder

To make a Machinekit image, just:

./RootStock-NG.sh -c machinekit-debian-wheezy

...like it says at the bottom of the readme.md file.
