For those who just want to build a board, it is useful to see a quick hint
right at the start of the documentation. Add a few commands showing how to
download toolchains and build a board.

+Quick-start
+===========
+
+If you just want to quickly set up buildman so you can build something (for
+example Raspberry Pi 2), and don't mind downloading lots of stuff:
+
+   cd /path/to/u-boot
+   PATH=$PATH:`pwd`/tools/buildman
+   buildman --fetch-arch all
+   buildman -k rpi_2
+   ls ../current/rpi_2
+   # u-boot.bin is the output image
+
+
 What is this?
 =============

2.8.0.rc3.226.g39d4020
