For genromfs, Ubuntu and WSL can be installed directly by "sudo apt-get install
genromfs". kconfig-frontend also get supported in the recent Debian/Ubuntu
release:
https://packages.debian.org/sid/kconfig-frontends
https://manpages.debian.org/testing/kconfig-frontends/index.html
But, anyway we need take a snapshot for other platform.
