 This is a demo implementation of a Linux command line tool to access
 the U-Boot's environment variables.
 
-For the run-time utiltity configuration uncomment the line
+In order to cross-compile fw_printenv, run
+    make CROSS_COMPILE=<your cross-compiler prefix> envtools
+in the root directory of the U-Boot distribution. For example,
+    make CROSS_COMPILE=arm-linux- envtools
+
+You should then create a symlink from fw_setenv to fw_printenv. They use
+the same program and its function depends on its basename.

+For the run-time utility configuration uncomment the line
 #define CONFIG_FILE  "/etc/fw_env.config"
 in fw_env.h.
