Add note about building for something other than a PC, e.g. a RasPi
The Makefile is configured by settings on top, not by trying to completely determine the target from the kernel tree or other things, and some other options. For a normal USB adapter on a PC, just type "make", for anything else, it needs the options changed. The added section explains it.

### Building
|
||||
|
||||
The Makefile is preconfigured to handle most x86/PC versions. If you are compiling for something other than an intel x86 architecture, you need to first select the platform, e.g. for the Raspberry Pi, you need to set the I386 to n and the ARM_RPI to y:
|
||||
```sh
|
||||
...
|
||||
CONFIG_PLATFORM_I386_PC = n
|
||||
...
|
||||
CONFIG_PLATFORM_ARM_RPI = y
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
There are many other platforms supported and some other advanced options, e.g. PCI instead of USB, but most won't be needed.
|
||||
|
||||
The driver is built by running `make`, and can be tested by loading the
|
||||
built module using `insmod`:
