Introduction
The term "Distribution" is used to refer to a version-numbered Release of Bering-uClibc 4.x - either a Beta or a "full" Release.
Few Developers will prepare formal Releases but it can be useful to understand the steps required and where all of the pieces come from.

TODO
Build the Buildenv
Run the following command from the buildtool root directory:
./buildtool.pl build buildenv
Build the Packages
Run the following command from the buildtool root directory:
tools/buildall.sh
Check for errors by viewing the HTML report generated as /tmp/DD.MM.YYYY/build.html where DD.MM.YYYY is a datestamp, for example 13.02.2011.
Build the lwp Packages
buildlwp.sh is a shell script, that generates the (standard) lwp files for the webconf Package. The files has been downloaded and extracted into the path source/lwp.
The script builds the lwp files in the package directory, named *.lwp.
./buildlwp.sh
Build the Images
Run the following command from the buildtool root directory, for each directory under image/ which contains a file called buildimage.cfg
fakeroot ./buildimage.pl --image=directory --relver=version
Substitute directory and version as appropriate. For example:
fakeroot ./buildimage.pl --image=Bering-uClibc_i486_syslinux_vga --relver=4.0beta1
The disk Image files are generated alongside each buildimage.cfg file.
